The ultimate icon of Danish design, its case is pared down to the balanced and daring aesthetic of Danish and Scandinavian minimalism. The gently curved celluloid lid is transparent with leaf-like ribbing: one can see the inner workings - the soul - of this instrument at all times.
A stunningly beautiful piano with finely detailed cabinetry, this completely new model of the PH Bow Grand Piano is an inspiration to behold. With its elegantly angled legs, inconspicuous pedal lyre, and organic lines, this instrument reverently nods to tradition while still expanding the potential of piano design.
First imagined at the inception of the Mid-Century Modern style, this instrument meets the highest musical standards of today. Manufactured exclusively by PH Pianos, this piano action, casing, and soundboard are all crafted from the finest European sources.
PH Pianos are designed by a world renowned, genuine and professional designer,
Poul Henningsen. PH Pianos are functional artworks rooted in a real design
philosophy and considered Danish cultural heritage icons.
Designed in the past, handcrafted in the present, and still belonging to the future.
We hold the exclusive and worldwide license from the estate of Poul Henningsen for production, marketing and sales of all pianos designed by Poul Henningsen (PH). Royalties are remitted to the Henningsen family in accordance with our license.
Dealers authorized by PH Pianos have the right to promote and sell the full collection of PH Pianos
Only we can issue authenticity documents and guarantee that the PH Piano
is in full accordance with original Poul Henningsen design and a true investment object.
PH Pianos are works by human hands - we are crafting all our in-house made PH Pianos
in full accordance with original Poul Henningsen design. From case veneers and metal
trims to the thousands of action parts, every instrument is carefully assembled,
inspected, and regulated; each key is fitted, weighted, and calibrated.
We use Renner action parts and very fine-quality materials, tailoring touch and tone to the player.
Our collection comprises two piano benches, each with a distinct purpose, expression and unique design. The Adjustable Piano Bench offers height control for pianists and is fully finished on all sides to conceal and protect the hardware. Its comfortable, refined form pairs well with art-case instruments. The PH Piano Bench, designed by Poul Henningsen in the 1930s, adds a playful, original note.
Integrating Music and Interior through captivating sound and sculptural forms.
A sculptural, active loudspeaker designed as functional art. A mouth-blown glass sphere meets a solid base in stone or wood, housing precision drivers, optionally a built-in subwoofer and amplification. Hand-assembled, it fills the room with coherent, natural sound while remaining calm and minimal in the space.
ToneArt also holds the worldwide and exclusive license on behalf of the Poul Henningsen family to craft, market and sell the full collection of all PH Furniture.

PH Pianos has commenced a collaboration with the world-renowned design and interior company, Tom Dixon Design Research Studio.
