Edelweiss Pianos
11 Ravens is proud to announce its partnership with Edelweiss Pianos as the Southern California retailer for the renowned British brand. This collaboration unites two visionary companies that have redefined heirloom-quality pieces into breathtaking sculptural works of art.
Now on display at the 11 Ravens showroom at the Pacific Design Center in West Hollywood is Edelweiss Pianos’ Transparent S132 – the world’s smallest transparent acoustic grand piano. A true centerpiece, this piano blends impeccable craftsmanship with innovative design, featuring a translucent case, color-changing LED lighting, and the cutting-edge Virtuoso Self-Play system with over 1,000 preloaded songs.
Edelweiss, celebrated for transforming traditional pianos into bespoke masterpieces with limitless customization options, finds a natural synergy with 11 Ravens. Both brands share a bold vision: to elevate classic, functional objects – whether a pool table or a piano – into sculptural statements that challenge convention, enrich interiors, and express individuality.
Collection Models
The Solis
Its name, Latin for ‘sun,’ reflects the original design inspiration: a commission to capture the breathtaking sunrises over the Californian desert.
The ‘sun discs’ are finished in Edelweiss’ specially developed Sunbaked Gold – a radiant surface crafted using 24-carat gold leaf – while the body is tastefully contrasted in Heirloom Bronze, a pure liquid metal finish. Both are part of three uniquely paired finishes created for The Solis.
The Silex
The Silex – named after the French word for ‘flint’ – draws from the form of the flint stone – commonly found and used by our ancestors. With a pale, rough outer cortex encasing a hard, dark quartz interior, its true beauty is only revealed when cracked open.
The design mirrors this contrast: smooth, flowing curves represent the stone’s natural cortex and organic shapes, while a sharply chiseled face evokes the moment of revelation – where the quartz is first exposed.
The Luna
Embodying the Moon’s calm and mysterious nature, The Luna is finished in an ‘Ottoman Bronze’ Liquid Metal finish with a contrasting ‘Starlight Gold’ White Gold Leaf interior.
Encircling the sound deck, crater-like detailing serve both form and function – diffusing sound and allowing ambient light to spill from within.
The Eclipse
The Eclipse reimagines the traditional three- legged piano with a sleek, contemporary aesthetic, while retaining just enough classical influence to blend timelessly into any interior.
As the only Edelweiss model currently available exclusively in wood veneer finishes, The Eclipse also pays tribute to traditional British design icons – infused with a fresh, modern twist.
The Transparent
Not only is the Edelweiss S132 the world’s smallest acoustic grand piano, it is also the smallest transparent one – adding a new dimension to this stunning concept. Its case design bears a striking ‘Spinnaker’ lid, elegant chamfers on the components, and the distinctive Edelweiss music desk.
Described as the perfect contemporary classic, the S132 nods to tradition while its translucency points to the future. When required to be a statement centrepiece, it becomes the perfect party starter – complete with LED colour-changing lights.
