  • Russian Pianist Olga Kern Opens $2 Million Public Piano Exhibit in Vancouver with Unveiling of $240,000 Steinway “Arabesque”
    RUSSIAN PIANIST OLGA KERN OPENS $2 MILLION PUBLIC PIANO EXHIBIT IN VANCOUVER WITH UNVEILING OF $240,000 STEINWAY “ARABESQUE” VANCOUVER, BC (April 30, 2014) – Award-winning Russian pianist Olga Kern opened a twelve-day public exhibit of custom designed pianos at Tom Lee Music today with the unveiling of Steinway & Sons’ new Limited Edition “Arabesque” piano, a $240,000 grand piano designed by renowned American furniture designer and artist Dakota Jackson to celebrate Steinway’s 160th anniversary. Widely recognized as one of the world’s great pianists, Ms. Kern celebrated the unveiling of the Arabesque by playing the Arabesque by Swiss composer Charles Samuel Bovy-Lysberg (1821-1873). Later this evening, she will perform works by Schumann, Alkan, Chopin and Rachmaninoff at a Vancouver Playhouse Recital presented by The Vancouver Chopin Society. The Arabesque unveiled today, one of only 50 worldwide and the only one in Canada, is the first piano to win the 2014 Red Dot Design Award for product design from the Design Zentrum Nordrhein Westfalen, one of the oldest and most highly reputed design institutions in Europe. A jury of international experts evaluated 4,815 product entries from around the world before awarding the coveted Red Dot designations. Made of polished black ebony, the Arabesque is one of 11 custom designed pianos worth $2 million that will be on display through to Sunday, May 11th. Jackson, a former dancer, designed the piano to reflect the channeled energy, perfect balance, and beauty of the Arabesque ballet pose in which the dancer's limbs are extended and held. He gave the Arabesque the impression of fluidity and movement through pentagonal legs, a gracefully curved prop stick, and a double row of silver bands in the rim.

  • Italian Postmodern Dining Table by Pietro
    This table is absolutely MAGNIFICO!!!! Signed by the iconic Pietro Costantini, this gorgeous Postmodern Italian dining table is the epitome of fine and eclectic furniture. This dining table is very similar to styles that Pietro Costantini designed for Ello, and though this table is definitely signed by Costantini, we cannot confirm it has been imported by Ello. Either way, it is breathtaking! The base consists of two straight black lacquered panels holding a concave curved rectangular top that is lacquered black on the bottom and the inside top has a lacquered veneer inlay with abstract geometric designs in colors of gold, green, red, blue, and yellow. STUNNING! This fabulous base holds a 3/4-inch rectangle glass with a 1 ½-inch bevel. Obviously, this would make a gorgeous dining room table anywhere, but we can also imagine it as a dynamic executive desk. And we know it will be a showstopper when paired with beautiful contemporary chairs but just think how incredible and unexpected with a fabulous set of antique chairs! The ideas and combinations are endless. You must make it yours. Price: $9,995 THIS BUFFET IS BELLISSIMA!!!!! Just look at this amazing Postmodern buffet, sideboard, or credenza by Pietro Costantini. Similar to other pieces by Costantini for Ello; but we can’t quite confirm that. However, we can confirm that this piece is signed and simply gorgeous! This Italian beauty is comprised of a highly lacquered black finish and a unique cylinder-shaped cabinet on the left side of the buffet with eye catching abstract geometrical shapes in colors of gold, green, red, blue, and orange.
