From the demure simplicity of the Mission Style to the restrained opulence of the Louis XV., there is hardly a recognized " Period " of decorative style which is not represented by them. Cases of such artistic merit are usually only made to order. In the case of the Hardman Piano they are available for immediate delivery. The Hardman is made in Three Forms: THE HARDMAN GRAND THE HARDMAN UPRIGHT THE HARDMAN AUTOTONE The Piano all can play by hand or perforated music roll Terms of purchase are made to meet the convenience of our customers.
