Sykes & Sons

We are very proud to offer this lovely modern upright piano by the highly respected British manufacturer, Welmar.

 

Welmar was established in 1925 by

Whelpdale, Maxwell & Codd Ltd. (WMC).

Welmar had a reputation for building very high quality, stable pianos with a very fine touch and tone.

 

WMC were originally the U.K agent for the very famous German manufacturer, Blüthner. WMC learned a great deal from this close working relationship and incorporated many characteristics and designs, otherwise unique to Blüthner, in their own pianos. The use of 'royal blue' felt on Welmar pianos is symbolic of the relationship between these two manufacturers.

 

Welmar pianos have always been appreciated by students and teachers alike because they were built with the Blüthner tone in mind, by craftsmen devoted to the art of piano-building. 

 

This Welmar has enjoyed a life of little use since it was purchased by the previous owners, brand new, in 1999.

 

The A10 is one of the larger models of the Welmar range. Housed in a beautifully proportioned satin mahogany case, this Welmar piano offers a full 88 note keyboard and celeste pedal, with a superb quality of sound and range of tonal dynamics; typical of Welmar pianos.

 

Like all our pianos offered for sale, this Welmar has been through our workshop and reconditioned, by our highly specialised technicians and comes with our five-year guarantee.
