Looks great, I love the polished ebony color, that is the only color to choose when buying a piano.

I have to agree, I love that for sure although I had speakers that were polished Rosewood and were gorgeous too. smile

It's beautiful! Congratulations!!

Is that a humidifier next to it? Is it OK to put it that close to the piano?

Yes it is a humidifier. It is not a misty or warm humidifier so I am hoping it is fine there. Maybe someone will comment on it.
Thanks for mentioning it.

If it's dry, then it's perfectly fine to have it there.
