Strich & Zeidler was a piano manufacturing company in the United States. The company was founded by William Strich in 1889 in New York City.

Strich & Zeidler was known for building extremely well made, high priced pianos in elaborate styles and finishes. Its instruments gained praise from Petrowitsch Bissing of the Bissing Conservatory of Music.[1] The company also built pianos under the "Homer" brand name as a lower priced choice compared to the higher priced Strich & Zeidler models.

The company manufactured pianos in modest numbers but experienced success until going out of business during The Great Depression.[2]
