Appraisal by expert Michael Stinnett who restores and sells Kurtzmann pianos—founder of The Antique Piano Shop Inc. suggests a value of at least 0,000.00
This is an incredible instrument by Kurtzmann. It was built in 1925 and at some point in the very recent past it underwent a total restoration valued at over ,000. It is an incredibly rare find as Kurtzmann did not make but a handful of concerts grands. Michael Stinnett told me in over 30+ years in the business—specializing in Kurtzmann restorations and sales he has only known of six, mine making number 7.
If you want a well-known more common concert grand piano Baldwin, Steinway, Kawai, Yamaha, Chickering or Bosendorfer but if you want a statement piece that will leave your audience in awe this Golden Era American made treasure can grace your home or hall.
HISTORY:
C. Kurtzmann & Company was established by Christian Kurtzmann in Buffalo, NY in 1848. In about 1859, C. Kurtzmann went into partnership with a gentleman by the name of Hinze to form the company of “Kurtzmann & Hinze“. Christian Kurtzmann dissolved this partnership sometime in the late 1860’s and started building pianos under his own name.
During the 19th Century, Kurtzmann built a number of square grand piano models, slowly integrating upright and grand pianos into their line by the turn-of-the-century. The firm was incorporated as “C. Kurtzmann & Co.” in 1901 and their factories were located on Niagara Street in Buffalo, NY. During the early 20th Century, C. Kurtzmann & Co. had gained control of the Capen Piano Company and “Brockport Manufacturing Co. The Wurlitzer Piano Company took control of Kurtzmann in 1935, and built the Kurtzmann brand name until 1938.
Kurtzmann was known for building very high quality, expensive pianos and organs, and their instruments were often very elaborate and sometimes “overbuilt”. These instruments are truly amazing examples of old-world quality and craftsmanship.
