During one scene in particular, of Jane playing the piano, it looked like the large keys were black and the small keys were white. Was this a particular style of piano? Was this from a specific piano company? I have never seen one like that before.

Thank you. That was very interesting information. I really like the reversed look a lot better. Too bad they didn't keep up with it.
shareAs they say,
"Legend has it that one of Cristofori's friends persuaded him to switch the colour to make it easier to differentiate the naturals."
One from another in the row it seems.
I may add, in my opinion white naturals won over black when they are ivory keys - they look so luxurious and smart! Nice touch and much more lasting I guess than wood ones.
