Childrens Piano Hape Appraisal

Hape Deluxe Grand Piano and Bench

This is a child-sized miniature grand toy piano produced by Hape, finished in a glossy black. The set includes a matching rectangular stool or bench, both featuring the white 'Hape' brand logo. The piano is constructed from a combination of wood, plastic, and metal components. It features a hinged top lid with a functional support prop, a decorative open-work music stand (lyre), and three curved legs. The keyboard consists of approximately 30 keys. Notable condition issues are highly visible on the white keys, which appear to have been heavily marked with colorful markers or crayons by a previous user, particularly on the left half of the keyboard. There is also general surface wear and some dust accumulation consistent with a used toy found in a retail or thrift environment. The item represents a contemporary educational toy designed for early musical exploration, likely manufactured within the last 10-15 years. The construction quality is utilitarian, utilizing bolted legs and synthetic finishes. A yellow price tag is visible on the seat of the bench, suggesting it is currently for sale in a secondary market.
