In 1887, Kimball began building a five-story factory for making its own pianos, and the next year produced 500 instruments of excellent quality. The Great Chicago Fire destroyed all of Kimball’s commercial assets in 1871, but he continued selling from his home, and rebuilt his dealership business. Kimball also sold less expensive reed organs. Founded by William Wallace Kimball (1828–1904), in 1864, Kimball moved from its earliest location in the corner of a jewelry store to sales rooms in the Crosby Opera House where Kimball sold pianos made by East Coast piano makers Chickering and Sons, the J & C Fischer Piano Company, Hallet & Davis, F.C. The Kimball Piano and Organ Company is a classic American brand which started as a piano dealership in Chicago in 1857. This is an excellent opportunity to own a piano which still has decades of useful life at a fraction of the cost of most used pianos.īaby grand size means it will fit in any space, and its contemporary high polish walnut finish is a deeper wood color that compliments most modern decors. This is the perfect instrument for someone who has always longed to own a baby grand, but has been waiting for the right piano to come along for the right price. This piano has a heart of gold, with a wonderful warm sound and inviting feel, and is fully backed by our unprecedented used piano warranty. The piano has been thoroughly checked by our certified technicians, and passed its S.T.A.R. This wonderful used Kimball baby grand needs a home!
