Dating Your Sohmer Piano

Sohmer was a respected American piano manufacturer known for well-built uprights and grands, with quality varying significantly after the decline of its original U.S. production.

Where to Find the Serial Number

To accurately date your Sohmer, you first need to locate its serial number. On most pianos, this is stamped on the gold-colored cast iron plate inside the instrument.

  • On Uprights: Open the top lid and look inside. The number is usually printed on the plate near the top, often toward the center or right side.
  • On Grands: Slide the music desk back or remove it. Look at the cast iron plate between the tuning pins.
