The unusual shape is reminsicent of other southern German or Austrian instruments of so-called "harp" form, where the case and instrument resemble a small harp laid on its side.

The discrepancy between the crude case and the elegant mechanism may suggest that the instrument is the product of two different individuals, a skilled piano craftsmen and a provincial carpenter. Technical description: Pentagonal case of heavy, vertically-veneered wood (possibly walnut), undecorated, on four square tapered legs; much restored; the keyboard, action, tuning pins appearing of late eighteenth century origin but the case unusual for that period; back of case not veneered; compass GG-f3 (59 keys); ebony natural heads with dark-stained tails and black embossed paper front, accidentals with bone slips over dark-stained wood with traLink wheels.Lantern.
