Serial number: 11787/51. This is a premier quality piano was manufactured in Germany. These pianos are still being manufactured today by the Sauter family, as far as we know. The current production is recognised as one of the best pianos in Europe, however there are very few Sauter pianos in South Africa. One of our clients visited the factory and was very impressed. Apparently, they are currently manufacturing a huge upright piano with a great impact on the industry.
This particular Sauter piano has come from a one-owner family, since new. The casing of the piano has just been painted with the “Morning Mist” shade of Rubio Monocoat (June 2018), this gives it a light, silver-grey finish. It has a light coating of the Monocoat so that the wood grain can be seen through it. We have found this product very popular as it gives the casing great variation of colour. With the stylish structure and modern finish, this is a very attractive piano!
The piano has a typical rich, mellow, German tone, 85 keys – with a lighter to medium touch – and 2 pedals. The dimensions of the piano are a height of 113 cm, a width of 141 cm and a depth of 56 cm.
The DE 513 Sauter Upright Pianoforte with stool was sold in November 2023.
