Baby grand piano - P170 model.
Special series in Red Naccarat lacquer - Replica of the original Pleyel piano of 1937 designed by the famous interior designer-cabinet worker Jacques-Emile Ruhlmann.
Year of first production: 2011. This was a special order for a private residence in Monaco.
Jacques Emile Ruhlmann was the undisputed genius of 20th century decorative arts and naturally took an interest in pianos as part of his cabinetmaking work. Eager to revive tastes for French-style furniture and interior decor, he created geometrical, trapezoidal and unadorned models to match the architecture and the furniture of various interiors. Made as a special order for a renowned interior design and decoration office and destined for a residential house in Monaco, this contemporary version of the “1937” piano with its shiny red Nacarrat lacquer finish (8 layers) gives a modern twist to this timeless instrument.
The design of this piano highlights the refined know-how of the Pleyel craftsmen who designed this trapezoidal shape instrument with a very deep red Naccarat lacquer both inside and out.

Baby grand piano – P170 model.
Year of first production: 2010. This was a special order for an Art chalet in Courchevel.
This piano symbolises the blend of music and design, the instrument’s acoustic subtlety and its graphic beauty. Seen from afar, the Parallèle piano, atop its acrylic legs, appears suspended in space, as if supported by its lyre alone. The parallel stripes in a glossy and matt cocoa brown lacquer create a musical stave, a sort of dreamlike score winding around the piano’s body.
Close up, the piano’s interior is a hypnotic red vermilion, down to the smallest detail: the underside of the lid, the cast-iron structure, the sounding board, the bridges, and even the string felts and upper dampers.

Large baby grand piano – P190 model
Signed by the artist and stamped by Pleyel. Year of first production: 2007. Next available: 1/8.
“Work-of-art” piano by the artist Aki Kuroda produced by Pleyel in partnership with Galerie Maeght (France).Aki Kuroda is an artist with a multidisciplinary quality, who gives life to his works in highly elaborate scene designs. This piano is an echo to the artist’s art work “Cosmogarden”, a channel where music and light take place side by side, and a work that rests on the backdrop of the cosmic night, a night that spreads out like a flower, the cosmos where mankind’s silhouette can be perceived.
The brightness of the lacquer, stenciling, contrasting forms and colours enhance the graphic and poetic nature materialized by the flower and the body shape. Spacemeeting is the result of spontaneity and movement of form sprouting from the lashes of the artist. The vividness of this piano, enhanced by its shine, proceeds from his vision – extremely serene but somewhat violent – of the universe.
The poetry of the flower Aki Kuroda is so fond of soothes the cosmic geometry of the lid and the presence of man in the universe.

Grand piano, unique model of the artist Jean Cortot, produced in collaboration with the Maeght Gallery and made in France in 2006.

Blue and ochre satin lacquer finish. Length 190 cm. Signature of the artist. Matching bench. Jean Cortot celebrates the modernity of the Salle Pleyel on the occasion of its reopening in 2006 with a plastic tribute to the music and work of his father, the pianist Alfred Cortot (1877-1962) whose musical life was closely linked to that of the Pleyel pianos and the Salle Pleyel. Through "Alèssido", the artist gives us his interpretation of a piano in the vein of his famous series of "writings", a true symbiosis of writing and painting. The names of the greatest composers who inspired the Pleyel company are written on imaginary staves with an allegorical graphic design reminiscent of musical notes.
