I have a Pleyel upright from that time, under restoration, and tuned it = 1/2=20 step low of 440. It sounded awful. But tuned at 440 it is much nicer. I should add that it has also a really short scale, so I suspect they = were=20 using a pretty high pitch" Calin, Helmholtz lists French Commnon pitch @ 447.5, for that approximate time.
