They came out in l720 ad so are purely museum pieces- no one would attempt to use one as a concert instrument- the risks are too great- they have one in the Metropolitant Museum of Art"s musical instrument colllection. They are, as stated priceless museum pieces and not suitable for regular use. please don"t try to pound out a C-Chord for old time"s sakes ( Pun intended) the instrument is probably under glass to prevent such a practice!

Have 1920's piano. Cost to restore is more than I can afford. Someone told me that the ivory on the keys might be valuable to a piano restorer. Is this a possibility?

The best thing to do is bring your dog to the vet and have them take skin scrapings. They can run some tests and get a better idea of the problem. Hmm... I'm not sure what bringing a dog to vet has to do with pianos, but to answer your question from a piano tuner, I would say in most cases, NO, the ivory is not valuable. I usually get my used ivory for free from pianos that are being trashed.
