Crystallized Pin-Up Pianos

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Marilyn Monroe Piano is a Luxury Instrument for Extreme Fans

— February 21, 2010 — Art & Design
4,000 Swarovski crystals encrust this Marilyn Monroe piano. This is the kind of musical instrument lounge singers dream of. Not only does this piano have a giant hand-painted image of the silver screen star and thousands of Swarovski crystals, but its legs are also covered in real ostrich feathers.

This Marilyn Monroe piano is both glamorous and gaudy. I can just imagine a Monroe impersonator singing "Happy Birthday, Mr. President" while splayed out on top of this instrument in a dimly lit Las Vegas lounge.
