Ritmüller 118S

Ritmüller 118S. Origin and design
Ritmüller 118S. The Ritmüller brand has a centennial history since its founding in Göttingen, Germany, by Andreas Georg Ritmüller and his son in the 19th century. Its legacy was renewed by the Pearl River group, which acquired the brand and continued its manufacture by combining European tradition and modern technology.

The piano’s modern design seeks to fuse craftsmanship with technological precision. The design was supervised by master designer Lothar Thomma, who has more than 30 years of experience.
