The 1972 Kimball Upright Piano exemplifies how a classic instrument can be innovatively reimagined for modern tastes. Originally built with Kimball’s renowned solid construction and warm tone, this piano has been entirely transformed, now featuring a vibrant, high-gloss pink finish that commands attention as much as it fills a space with music.
The restoration process was meticulous and thorough. The piano was completely disassembled, its original finish removed down to the bare wood, and every imperfection carefully addressed before applying the new coating. The final result is a flawless, high-gloss pink lacquer—an audacious contrast to the traditional black or wood finishes typical of vintage uprights. Hardware was polished to enhance the new look, and a new decal was added to create a cohesive, elegant appearance.
While many pianos from this era are valued solely for their tone and craftsmanship, this Kimball distinguishes itself as a true style statement—equally suited as a functional instrument or a striking decorative piece in any room designed to impress. It seamlessly combines playful, contemporary design with the enduring strength of a well-made vintage upright, offering both visual appeal and reliable, expressive sound.
Perfect for a music room, studio, or as a captivating focal point within a curated interior, this pink Kimball upright injects personality, craftsmanship, and a unique presence that few pianos can match.
