Story:

Josef Wiesner
Munich 23
The Wiesner brothers produced bandoneons, concertinas, and harmonicas under their brand from 1906 to 1942.
Josef Wiesner was also a special manufacturer of the famous Munich Schrammel bandoneons.
This bandoneon was probably created around 1915-1920 at the beginning of the company.


A bandoneon is a harmonica-like musical instrument that Heinrich Band developed from the concertina in 1854.
The warm and woolly sound makes it suitable for playing melancholic music such as tango

An instrument with a wooden case.
The bag is airtight.
All tones are playable, all buttons and the very beautiful sound plates are present.
The condition of the instrument is still very good.

You surely understand this.
The bandoneon is not new, but rare and very old.
It can also be seen that it has been played.
Due to being over 100 years old, it is in excellent condition and has only very slight age-related signs of wear.
Only five mother-of-pearl button covers were replaced.

Please see the many original photos.
