Aan de merknaam en eventueel andere opdruk op een piano of vleugel is de herkomst van het merk of fabrikant vaak moeilijk af te lezen. Ook is tegenwoordig vanuit de schrijfwijze of klank van een merknaam de herkomst zeker niet te herleiden. Zo klinken bijvoorbeeld Niemayer, Ritmuller, Offenbach en Otto Meister erg Duits, maar zijn in werkelijkheid fantasienamen of opgekochte historische namen die nu in China worden geproduceerd. In de tabel hieronder vindt u de herkomst van een aantal pianomerken.
