Beginning with the restoration of a single piano by our founder in 1975 evolving into the creation of our first Edelweiss piano in our Cambridge workshops in 2008, we have spent the past five decades honing the artistry of piano making.
Every Edelweiss piano is a work of art, lovingly handcrafted by a select team of master British artisans, each one imbued with passion, precision, and a legacy of craftsmanship.
With every stroke of their craft they transform raw materials into a symphony of elegance, resulting in a piano of exquisite beauty and unparalleled craftsmanship.
The story begins 1000 – 1800m high in the spruce forests of the European Alps, where for more than 3 centuries the world’s finest tone wood has been harvested.
Here – where the harsh environment and altitude makes for a short growing season that creates Sitka spruce with the fine growth ring structure essential for a pure sound – is where the musical heart of every Edelweiss originates.
The feel of a piano is its ability to give expression to its Voice and one of the most important aspects on the instrument.
Each finished Edelweiss is a delight to hear, whether produced by the lively fingers of a concert pianists or the delicate touch of the solenoids in the Edelweiss Virtuoso Self Playing System: the finest nuances of the beautiful Edelweiss Voice can be expressed.
The look of an Edelweiss is very important, each client can specify their piano to be exactly as they want it, making it uniquely their own.
