I am not sure I agree with Baldwin in their boilerplate description of this gaudy instrument, but if it is actually real it does make an impression.
While a piano must have extraordinary sound, it must also be beautiful. With more than 100 years of woodworking and design experience, Baldwin is uniquely qualified to craft piano cabinets which are not only durable, but also provide timeless beauty.
Guess who showed up at the White House wearing a zebra bath robe?
Joan Baez, of course!
In an interview with Seattlepi.com, Joan explains that she was one of thousands who flocked to the White House to celebrate Barack Obama's election as President of the United States:
"We were staying in Alexandria, Va., so we went outside and hollered -- and there was nothing happening. So we got in a cab and I said, 'Take us to the White House!' " Baez said with a laugh during a phone interview this week."If you go to the Washington Post Web site and search for me, you'll see me in a zebra bathrobe standing in front of the White House with 4,000 other people."

Named for a man-made sand beach on the banks of the Osage River at the foot of a steep hill, Osage Beach was platted in 1928, by real estate developers who sold lots even before the Dam was completed. Two small towns, Zebra, originally on the Osage River and named for the striped appearance of nearby bluffs, and Damsel existed here. Eventually both were incorporated into Osage Beach.
The memory of the town of Zebra today endures in the form of Zebra Road.
Artist Per Ove Sleen says he has no idea what he means by Code Zebra, his artwork depicting a blood-spattered zebra that has fused with a barcode.
I would propose that the work represents the commercialization and commoditization of wild animals, murdered and assimilated into a commercial product development cycle.
Code Zebra may be open to interpretation, but I looked into the specifics of the numbers appearing in the barcode and found that this barcode is a "Random Weight UPC." According to UPCdatabase.com Random Weight UPC codes are used for pricing items. If that is the intent of the artist's use of the UPC code then Code Zebra would appear to be selling for 873.94 in whatever unit of currency one might choose. It may also be that the barcode in Code Zebra represents the costs associated with assimilating a zebra into commerce.
The t-shirt, as you can see, sells for US$28.93.
Zebra Finches are loud and boisterous singers. Their call can be a loud "beep", "meep", "oi!" or "a-ha!", sounding something like a toy trumpet or the buttons on a phone being pushed. Their song is a few small beeps, leading up to a rhythmic song of varying complexity in males. Each male's song is different, although birds of the same bloodline will exhibit similarities, and all finches will overlay their own uniqueness onto a common rhythmic framework. Fathers pass on their songs to their sons with little variation.

Where does the name “Urban Zebra” come from?
To be honest, I don’t remember very well. I know I wanted a name made up of two words, that would be associated with photography, and that was cool and easy to remember. I’m positive at least one of these requirements has been fulfilled. Hey, it could have been worse: for some time I thought about using “Flying Platypus”.

A Crossing of Zebras: Animal Packs in Poetry is a book of poems inspired by the collective nouns associated with groups of animals.
The collective noun for zebras happens to coincide with the pedestrian walkway known as Zebra Crossing.
The title poem for this book follows:
A crossing of zebras zig-zags left to right
then left to right. It's really a delight
to watch their fancy footwork, hooves in flight.
You first see white-and-black, then black-and-white
except, of course, if it's a moonless night,
in which case you see only black-and-black.
What can I say? I'm giving you the facts
in black and white.

This drawing is of a zebra of course, but for me it is really about patterns—those created by the zebra's stripes, and those created by the strong shadows cast by bright sunlight.
From The St. Petersburger comes this Zebra Figurine:
This exquisite Russian porcelain zebra figurine is one of the more than 300 colored figures of the famous ``porcelain zoo`` created by Lomonosov Porcelain Factory sculptors and painters. This factory is a unique phenomenon. Its porcelain represents indeed the traits of typically Russian perception of beauty. Their masters create hand-made and hand-painted porcelain and continue noble artistic traditions set by famous Russian sculptors and artists.
From the "What Works for Us" blog comes this fine picture of a zebra at the zoo:
According to Wikipedia:
The Quagga is an extinct subspecies of the Plains zebra, which was once found in great numbers in South Africa's Cape Province and the southern part of the Orange Free State. It was distinguished from other zebras by having the usual vivid marks on the front part of the body only. In the mid-section, the stripes faded and the dark, inter-stripe spaces became wider, and the rear parts were a plain brown. The name comes from a Khoikhoi word for zebra and is onomatopoeic, being said to resemble the quagga's call.
From DetailsArt.com comes this Single Zebra:
Are the stripes simply stripes? In this piece one can see how the awe of nature comes through every aspect of the world surrounding us. A little study reveals formulas and rules in nature, yet endless variation and uniqueness within those rules.
