A Masterpiece of Grace, Craft, and Musical Soul

The case of the Chippendale is a work of sculpture—a piano whose graceful form is as expressive as its voice.

Officially designated as Case 1014A in the Steinway factory, this exquisite instrument showcases hand-carved cabriole legs, flowing scrollwork, and a sculpted bench, molding, and pedal lyre—all carved by a single artisan to ensure visual harmony. Its iconic ball-and-claw foot not only reflects the ornate styling of the Rococo period, but also carries a deeper level of meaning: in Chinese culture, it represents a dragon guarding a pearl of wisdom or purity—adding symbolic richness to its presence.

The Chippendale is built on the foundation of Steinway’s legendary Model M, a 5’7″ grand piano praised for its warm, nuanced tone and responsive touch. Its size makes it ideal for homes and more intimate spaces, while its performance capabilities make no compromise. With a solid Sitka spruce soundboard, patented Hexagrip pinblock, and finely regulated action, every Chippendale delivers the rich tonal palette and dynamic range Steinway is known for.

Inside, this piano is unmistakably Steinway—crafted in New York from the same materials and with the same standards as the concert grands chosen by the world’s foremost pianists. From the carefully tapered soundboard to the meticulously balanced keys, each component contributes to an instrument built for both beauty and durability. It is an heirloom of sound, meant to be played and passed on.

The Chippendale is also available with Spirio and Spirio | r, Steinway’s revolutionary high-resolution player piano and recording system. With Spirio, you can enjoy performances by world-renowned Steinway Artists, recreated live on your own piano with breathtaking realism.
