What a little gem! Thanks for sharing it with us!

A nice small organ! Despite its size it still has a nice full sound and definitely fills its room.

Nice sound I like the pipes

So cool to have such basic and well maintained lil organ. I was surprised a 16 bourdon. All voices sound great!! There were parlor organs in a neighbors house where I grew and the pumping and bellow sounds to the rhythm . Can't really update without messing it up.

Love it!

This is an impressive example how careful a calcant has to do his work.

Fully diapered on the backs of the front pipes.

Nice small organ appropriate for moderate hymn singing. It’s a Shame there is no 2ft to complete the chorus or add brightness. The Dulciana is neither here nor there and adds nothing to the quality of the instrument.
