Precious veneers exquisitely cut and matched, gold leaf adorning intricate carvings or discreet accent pieces to distinguish your Blüthner amongst all others — the Imperial Edition offers a variety of masterpieces, each unique in design, but all uniform in their quality. A worthy challenge for our master piano builders.

Julius Blüthner
It is rare for a family business to maintain excellence lasting for more than a century, but Julius Blüthner, the founder of the legendary piano company, created a business dynasty which has achieved just that. Julius Blüthner revolutionized the art of piano making, creating instruments that are enduring examples of outstanding craftsmanship and admired for their unparalleled beauty of tone.
Queen Victoria
During the Victorian Age of the 19th century, Blüthner was the purveyor to the Royal Court of Queen Victoria. The English Society in this time adored the style of the Neo-Renaissance, which expressed the wealth and the feeling of belonging to the most important nation in the world in a most convincing way. Queen Victoria and her princely husband Albert defined that period which was later named after them.
Kaiser Wilhelm II
Adorned with elegantly hand- carved legs, lyre and music desk, this model is reminiscent of a bygone era of piano design that showcased the skill and pride of its craftsman in the ornate beauty of its presentation.
Tsar Nicolaus II
This model was first made for the Russian Tsar Nicolas II. The exquisitely fashioned panels are made of burr walnut, framed with a fine lining of maple. The basic veneer is made of French walnut. All of this marquetry is individually handcrafted in our factory by our master piano makers.
Louis XIV
The exterior of this breathtaking instrument has been designed in the style of the fanciful French king. The grace and delicateness of the ornamentation is based on elements of the Rococo style. The legs, lyre, music desk and the rim are decorated with carvings tastefully gilded with real gold. To reproduce the original style and design of this instrument is both a demanding and satisfying task.
President
This design of the Supréme Edition President was created to please the discerning connoisseur using the acoustic construction of our Blüthner Classic grand pianos. It offers a more ornate outside, with moulded liners on the key bottom, chamfers at the top lid, a delicately carved music desk and a combination of rare veneers such as pyramid mahogany, birdseye maple, bubinga or burl walnut.
Ambassador
Precious rosewood laid in a fishbone pattern sets off this elegant case design, featuring stately chamfers and moulding complimented by a turned leg and lyre.
Senator

Jubilee
The 150th anniversary of our company was the perfect opportunity to release this beautiful addition to the Supreme collection. The remarkable feature of this piano is the very ornate iron harp casting that has been taken from the classic design originally produced for the 50th anniversary in 1903. The octagonal legs are a stylish shape, reminiscent of the traditional design of the early days of piano making. A specially decorated music desk adds to the splendour of the instrument.
Dynasty
The regal beauty of the Blüthner Dynasty Edition is anything but hidden. Highly figured wood veneers and hand-carved woodwork are enduring statements of luxury, adding a historic air of extravagant opulence to this instrument. Lavishly adorned for Blüthner’s 165th anniversary, the Dynasty pairs equal measures of black polished marquetry, with bold panels of exquisitely figured Amboyna wood.
