The inner and the outer rims of the case
of the piano are made of multiple layers of solid wood of impeccable quality.
The inner rim is made of layers of solid beech and the outer rim of layered solid
mahogany.
The rims are formed by clamping straight thin length of these woods around counter-moulds
in order to hand-shape the section. Glue is applied between the individual layers
of wood to secure them into the molded shape. The shaping procedure is in keeping
with the time-honored tradition and is incredibly time consuming, but the quality
of the final outcome cannot be equaled by any mechanical or automatic process.
