Michelsonne
Michelsonne Paris was a French brand of toy piano manufactured from 1939 to 1970, and created by Victor Michel.
They were named "bell-tone pianos" on their publicity brochure. They became very rare to find. In 1970, a fire destroyed their factory at, and the patents were sold to Bontempi. Bontempi has continued building the same models for a 4-year-old audience. However, there are a few visual differences. They used black keys and a dark brown body layout.
There are several models:
- chromatic upright pianos with 13, 16, 20, 25, 30, 37 or 49 keys
- chromatic grand pianos with 25, 30, 37 or 49 keys
