PH Upright Piano

DESIGNED IN 1939 BY POUL HENNINGSEN

An incredible design piece that commands its space, while using less space in the interior setting. Poul Henningsen’s 1939 design for this upright piano incorporates the rounded leather banding that is featured on all PH Pianos, as well as chrome louvers and a distinctive shape.

Form and Function

An upright piano design that was first imagined at the inception of the Mid-Century Modern period, this instrument meets the highest musical standards of today. Due to the excellent quality of the piano action, the instrument is well suited as a working and performance instrument for the serious musician, while also enriching the most stylish and curated homes and living spaces.

The PH Upright Piano features an unusually curved resonating chamber, which contributes to a warmer sound. Its reflective chrome facade is reminiscent of the famous PH Lamp, emitting sound in warm layers. 

SELFPLAYER SYSTEM

The PH Pianos can be configured with an integrated self-player system, bringing music into the room at the touch of a button. Choose from an extensive library of music and control the piano directly from your smartphone or tablet. 

Connected speakers can add accompanying instruments and vocals, creating a complete musical experience. The system is discreetly integrated without compromising the original design, sound or character of the piano. Timeless design, made for the way we live today.
