My piano! The finish was negative for lead. The vinyl of the seat was positive at 292 ppm lead. Vintage pianos are often very high lead. I have not tested many newer ones, but if this is any indication newer ones may have lead free finishes!
For those new to my site: 90 ppm (and above) is the level at which the CPSC has determined a consumer good to be unsafe for children.

Hi Tamara, I appreciate this testing was done sometime ago but I was wondering if you also tested the brass hardware on the piano, like the pedals and hinges? I also have a Yamaha Piano similar to yours (albeit younger model) and am curious to know if the brass contains any lead?
