Edelweiss works directly with interior designers from early concept through to installation. We understand material palettes, programme pressure, and clients who change their minds.
Every Edelweiss piano is made in Cambridge and conceived, from the outset, to live in a considered interior. Not a music room. A home. The finish, the proportion, the colour, the material — each one chosen or specified, not defaulted to.
We have worked alongside interior designers since our earliest workshops. We understand that a piano is often the largest single object in a room. We treat it accordingly.
Our finishes can be matched to Farrow & Ball and Little Greene colour systems. Our team is comfortable at concept stage. Floor plan templates, CAD models, and photo-real renders are provided as standard.

The established piano industry works to a narrow palette. A handful of finishes. A standard configuration. The instrument arrives looking the way the maker decided it should look.
Edelweiss works differently.
Every piano we build is fully specified by the person who will own it. Sygnet and Flügel are available in any colour. Aurora goes further. Any colour, any material, any finish. The full Farrow & Ball and Little Greene ranges as a starting point, and well beyond them for the right commission. We have finished pianos in crystal, brushed copper, poured resin, gold leaf, and shades that did not have names before someone asked us to match them. No other piano maker offers this as standard.
Self-play is included on every instrument. The piano performs whether or not anyone is seated at the keys. Felt hammers strike copper strings. A fully acoustic grand piano, playing itself, controlled from an iPad. The sound is live because it is live.
Aurora, our principal instrument, is designed and built entirely in Britain. Its engineering is patented. The result of fifty years of restoration knowledge, rethought from first principles. Serious pianists who sit down at it rarely talk about anything else afterwards.
These are not refinements to a traditional piano. They are reasons to own one that the traditional piano market cannot offer.
Each route is built around different timelines and levels of creative ambition. The standard of instrument is the same across all three.
The inspiration gallery collects real commissions. Colours, materials, and contexts from projects already delivered. A useful starting point for any brief.
A piano from our current collection in one of our existing finishes. The fastest route to a confirmed specification. Suited to projects with firm delivery dates, or where one of our curated finishes already sits within the brief.
Start with one of our models and specify it as you need. Finish, colour, hardware, interior materials. Physical samples are produced and sent for sign-off before the build begins. The right balance of pace and creative control for most residential projects.
A blank canvas. Proportion, finish, material, form — worked out from first principles with our design team. Suited to commissions where the piano is central to the architectural thinking of the space, not incidental to it.
A conversation or a written brief. Budget, timeline, room dimensions, design direction. Floor plans and mood boards welcome, but not required at this stage. We ask only what we need.
Our design team presents three directions. Each arrives as a photo-real render and a DWG/CAD model, ready to drop into your own presentation. No watermarks. No conditions.
Once a design is confirmed, we produce physical samples and post them directly to your address. Signed-off samples release the build. A 50% deposit is required at this point. The balance is due before delivery.
Every piano is built in our Cambridge workshops. Before delivery is booked, each instrument goes through a full quality review. Installation is arranged around your programme.
Everything you need to place an Edelweiss piano into a presentation or planning document is available to registered trade accounts.
Residential interior designer, London
Our team visits design practices to present the full Edelweiss range in person. We bring physical samples, a focused talk on the design and engineering of our instruments, and time to work through the questions specific to your project.
Sessions run approximately 45 minutes and are open to your whole team. We can come to you, or welcome you to our Cambridge showroom.
Honest. Specific. Worth an hour of your time.
Available across the UK. European and US studio visits on request.
Sygnet is the world’s smallest grand piano. Characterful, design-led, made as much for the room as for the music. Aurora shares its footprint but little else. Patented engineering, a six-figure instrument, built entirely in Britain. Flügel is our full-scale grand, for rooms with the scale to hold one.
For the right interior, there is also the transparent upright.
Sygnet and Flügel are available in any colour. Aurora is available in any colour, any material, and any finish.
Every model includes self-play as standard.
