Piano Dining Table: Music, Munching and Money
March 5th, 2010
Pianos are unwieldy instruments. Tables are unwieldy too, but we have no choice but to make room for at least one table in our homes – unless you’re like me, and you usually eat either in front of the computer or TV. Georg Bohle combines the two in one simple yet elegant design…
I love how simple it looks. Bohle could have added a bit more flair to it – a sleek black piano finish perhaps? – but I think it’s better this way.
The table itself is made from oak wood. And no, I don’t know what those rectangular holes are either.
It’s unfortunate and ironic however, that something that seems to have been designed for a small space could be so darned expensive: Born Rich says that the estimated cost of the piano table is $6,000 (USD).

What a crazy cool table – will add a picture of it to my blog newdiningtableandchairs.com/
The piano is electric, not acoustic. The holes would be for plugging things into like speakers or headphones, a computer, a midi, etc.
$6,000 for a custom built oak table of that size – without a piano in it – from a craftsman’s studio is not out of the question.
A fIne digital piano can run $3,000.
Which makes the whole thing a bargain!. My acoustic piano cost $25,000. You maybe can put a cup of coffee on it.
