Blüthner rim construction

 

Only the finest timber, carefully selected from all over the world and seasoned over many years, is used as the basis for the outstanding quality of Blüthner instruments.

A gentle drying and maturing process ensures that the sensitive membranes of the cells in the wood remain intact, so that vibrations can be conducted without significant loss of energy.

Using traditional craftsmanship, the solid rim is assembled in a robust tension-free design that enhances resonance and forms the firm foundation for the world famous Blüthner soundboard.
