Grand pianos are regarded by many as the ultimate choice in pianos. This is partly because of their beautiful shape, but mainly because they display superior sound. The soundboard of a grand piano is not placed vertically against a wall like an upright piano, but horizontally to the floor with some distance between the floor and the piano allowing the soundboard to vibrate more freely.

Instruments with distinctive character. The Empire style (1804-1830), originating in Paris, took the world of the grand salons by storm and was closely linked to the personality cult surrounding Napoleon Bonaparte. Representation and decoration were the objectives of the style which was characterised by straight lines, austerity and solemnity, for example in furniture, art and fashion. Schimmel have recreated this style in their Empire grand pianos, but not in its most opulent form. The slender lines of marquetry and fine carvings emphasise the classic elegance of the Early Napoleonic era. This is an ornament for any room in which the grand piano can communicate the flair and atmosphere of a French salon.
