These four-octave Morley clavichords are compact and practical. They are beautifully built, and this example has particularly splendid veneer that is rosewood, I believe. The interior is in fine condition, but the exterior has had a harder life, and is very faded. It needs refreshment, and I would recommend home-made furniture restorer (recipe on request).
The seller has asked me to mention that the lowest F# key is a bit sticky, and needs attention .
The serial number confirms the date. As was the custom at the time, the sharp-tops on this clavichord are made from ivory. It falls within the period 1947 - 1974, and therefore is offered with an Article 10 certificate.
The APHA certificate number is 24GBA10OYW2LP
It is in Edinburgh; the price is £500 o.n.o. Please contact the owner, Susanna Hastilow susanna.hastilow@btinternet.com
