I can't believe how easy it is to post pictures here! 😂

Rubens Yes, that's my Grotian 192, purchased from Cathy Harl in 2006.

I used to have my old Howard/Kawai in the room as well. I would use the second piano to accompany Piano*Son when he was learning stuff that had an orchestral reduction.

I wish they made piano brands more instantly recognizable from the external design. And I'm not talking about anything extreme such as space ship designs and whatnot. Just little things that are distinctive such as the shape of the Grotrian's tail end, but they could go a little bit further than that.

Pallas SK is my dream piano.

They are so colorful and dreamy sound! At least with the one we currently have, and the ones I’ve played in showrooms (SK-2, 3, 6, 7).

Gorgeous pianos all around!

That has to be the biggest teddy bear I’ve ever seen. Brilliant idea for sound control though! I may have to do something similar.

Many thanks to Costco! You can see lots of photos from Google to get a sense of the scale of it, compared to humans and other objects.

Here is our bear, on our dining table bench:

It is indeed huge (7'9" | 236 centimeters). Makes our 280VC almost look like a baby grand. It also makes for a wonderful cushion for taking a nap, and "photo booth" when you have guests over!

We call the bear "Bearsendorfer."

I am loving all the photos, you all have such wonderful spaces!

Ok, here is my piano room about old house (we moved bc I got a new position, I wish we could have taken this house with us!)

Here is my piano in our current rental house.

We’re moving againin a few weeks, so I’ll have to post an updated photo after we get all settled!

Here is my Music Man Cave - probably many of you had seen when I posted on PW!

Rubens

brdwyguy I like everything about your room. Especially the bench. Reminds me of a Frasier episode in which it was revealed that Gil Chesterton was driving a red BMW with a red interior. The seats probably looked just like your bench😁.

Interesting Rubens, I may have to sell the bench as my spine issues have grown increasingly worse and worse.
I now use a swivel, office chair with padding when I play. I will let you know if and when I do sell the bench!

I feel outclassed by all you 7-9-footers—but I make up for it in numbers and weirdness. Here are two of my three pianos, my 1877 Blüthner grand, and my 1883 Henry F. Miller pedal upright. Mason & Hamlin eventually to follow.

mha9 my 1877 Blüthner grand,

I love the Blüthner! It is just like mine. (But you know that!)

It would be good to see a picture of the inside.

Haha! Thanks but my taste in benches is nowhere as sophisticated as yours! I'm good with my boring black benches.

Everybody's pianos look great! Here's mine:

I also made the tables and the vase (what is called a segmented turning) and my wife made the quilt.

David-G I'm waiting for your photos. I recall some particularly stunning ones you took of the string field of your piano--beautiful geometric patterns of light reflections on the strings. My photographic eye isn't so good, and the only camera I have anymore is the one on my phone.

ALL SUCH BEAUTIFUL PIANOS - I'm really impressed with people who have TWO Grands next to each other! WOW.

Nothing glamorous. I live in an apartment that has cardboard walls and always play with headphones.

It's an N3 (not the X). To the right is a slide-out drawer with the laptop I use for VSTs. In the cabinet below the laptop is the Focusrite interface and other junk.
The speakers are just for media on rare occasions. I don't use them for the piano. (Which, as I said, is headphones-only.)
