This Victorian button concertina by Lachenal and Co. dates to 1900 and exemplifies the gentleman's library style. Constructed from reddish-brown rosewood, it features hexagonal fretted ends with intricate carved fretwork, multi-fold black leather bellows with patterned yellow and white paper panels, and numerous small bone button keys with select contrasting red markers. Additional hardware includes dark leather thumb straps and metal thumb rests secured to the end plates. It measures 17.5 cm high, 21 cm wide, and 18 cm deep. Musical instruments of this period suit display and occasional use in a home setting. This concertina sits on a bookshelf or desk within a study, living room, or music room alongside leather-bound volumes and period collectables. Collectors and musicians value these items for their historic design and traditional craftsmanship, while interior decorators use them as decorative accents that add character and texture to antique-styled rooms.

FAQs

A concertina is a free-reed musical instrument developed in the early nineteenth century, featuring expandable bellows flanked by two hexagonal wooden or metal endpieces with operating buttons.

Victorian concertinas were typically constructed using polished hardwoods such as rosewood or mahogany for the frames, pierced fretwork endplates, multi-fold leather bellows, and bone or brass buttons.

Authentic pieces usually feature stamped serial numbers near the thumb straps or fretwork, original printed maker labels bearing Lachenal & Co. details, and distinct fretwork patterns specific to London workshops.

An antique concertina functions well as a tactile decorative object on open bookshelf displays, styled on a sideboard top, or presented inside a glass vitrine to highlight its mechanical fretwork.

Keep the instrument in a stable, climate-controlled environment away from direct heat to prevent wood warping and leather drying, and clean the exterior wooden surfaces gently with a soft dry cloth.
