the bottom. The frame is cast iron. The section
of strings located behind the bridge is equipped with dampers. The key action is rehearsal. The

The case is decorated with relief pierced and embossed carving, tinted (with the frame) in imitation of ivory (‘French lacquer’), the panels are tinted blue and straw. The instrument belonged to A. Rubinstein (1829–1894).
