Collection: Mason & Hamlin Pianos

Mason & Hamlin pianos have a rich history dating back to 1854 when Henry Mason and Emmons Hamlin founded the company in Boston, Massachusetts. From the outset, Mason & Hamlin aimed to produce pianos of exceptional quality, combining meticulous craftsmanship with innovative design. Their instruments quickly gained acclaim for their superior tonal clarity, responsive action, and durability, making them a favorite among professional musicians, institutions, and discerning piano enthusiasts.

The company pioneered several technological advancements in piano manufacturing, including the Tension Resonator, which enhances the stability of the piano's structure and contributes to its exceptional sound quality over time.

Mason & Hamlin pianos are renowned for their distinctive tone, characterized by a warm, rich bass and a clear, singing treble. This tonal balance is achieved through their patented crown retention system and innovative rim design, which optimize the vibration of the soundboard and improve resonance throughout the instrument.

Throughout its history, Mason & Hamlin has maintained a commitment to artistic expression and musical excellence. Their pianos have been favored by renowned pianists such as Sergei Rachmaninoff and Ignacy Jan Paderewski, further solidifying their reputation in the world of classical music and beyond.

Today, Mason & Hamlin continues to uphold its legacy as one of the premier piano manufacturers, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern technology to create instruments that inspire both performers and listeners alike. Learn more about this brand at the manufacturer’s website.
