Where Vintage Steinways Become Masterpieces Again
We specialize in

STEINWAY RESTORATION

In the piano restoration industry, the most highly acclaimed instruments are vintage Steinways—pianos manufactured between the late 1800s and 1950s. What makes vintage Steinways so coveted? During the golden age of piano manufacturing, Steinway wasn't using modern assembly lines. Each piano was crafted in a small station by two or three master craftsmen working intimately on one instrument, much like a skilled luthier.

At Supreme Pianos of New York, we replicate this artisan approach to Steinway piano restoration. Only two or three expert technicians work on each piano, combining old-world craftsmanship with modern precision technology to produce restored instruments that surpass the originals.;
