The term piano baby is a term used by the antique collectors. During the early twentieth century, people used to keep pianos as decorative pieces at home. These pianos are usually decorated or covered with shawls made out of a particular material. These shawls are made to hold in place with the help of pretty and cute figurines of babies. The pieces are small in size usually ranges from 6 to 18 inches. These were produced in Germany and are reproduced even today.
