The finish on this piano is exquisite with its rich reddish-brown finish, stylish gold and brass accents throughout, and even a crest with gold leaf on the plate. The Schimmel Diamond Series pianos feature upgrades to the standard models. Most noticeable are the gold-colored plate (instead of a copper color), double-locking casters not featured on standard models, a slightly different shape to the legs with different ferrules, and a brass accent at the joint. The plate of the piano has also been personally signed by Nikalaus and Viola Schimmel.
