This square piano was made by George Huppmann in Baltimore, Maryland about 1845. It is one of three pianos in the Smithsonian by Huppmann. This piano has a compass of FF-f4, Viennesse action, felt hammers, single-strings for the first 6 notes, double-strings for the rest, tuning pins in the front, 2 pedals (missing): moderator and dampers, wood frame, and a mahogany case (?) with legs that are probably not original
