Important self-playing piano "La Victoire" stamped Blanche-Petit & Goffart
About the Item
Important automatic self-playing piano called "Bastringue", from the beginning of the XXth century, working with an interchangeable cylinder stamped by the organ and piano makers "J.B BLANCHE-PETIT et R. GOFFART". The piano we offer is a model "La Victoire Orchestra" n° 3424, registered in 1919.
This magnificent carved wood veneer piano orchestra is engraved on each side with a fine gold border with floral and arabesque motifs in the Art Nouveau style of the early 20th century. In its upper part, three panes of glass reveal the soundboard and its strings as well as the orchestra of ancillary instruments composed of a snare drum, a triangle and a wooden stop with two hammers. On each side are integrated two handles worked in chased bronze. The model ends on curved feet in C-shaped scrolls. On the left side, there is a crank, a coin box, a push button and a dial allowing a choice of 6 different melodies. The body of the instrument has a glass in the lower part, revealing a cylinder made of poplar wood, filled with thousands of pimples. Each pin is meticulously planted by hand in the cylinder which acts as a score, allowing the 58 hammers to strike the strings and thus obtain the desired melody. This true artist's work gives our old orchestra piano a unique historical and artisanal character. Its curves and its Art Nouveau look will bring an exceptional cachet to your interior.
