    It's one of the many things UOers build with various items in the game. It's a challenging little diversion that leaves you with a neat decoration in the end.  There's one on the second floor of this house:

     

     

    It's made from stacks of dyed cloth and fished up items.

     

    Since then they added aquariums.

     

    Here's a page to a couple other artistic creations by UOers.

    Wow so in UO items were truly player made in every way? Didn't that require coding like Second Life?

    Stuff like that you just put together and locked down into place so they wouldn't 'disappear.' :)

    Here's one of the ways to make a grand piano: http://uo2.stratics.com/homes-and-decorations/echo-deco/construct-a-piano

    Note: It's not a working piano, just a decoration.

     

    In uo, a house, depending on size, can hold anywhere from 500 to several thousand items ( astack of of most materials/consumables counts as 1 item). There is also a relatively freeform placement of items so players get creative when putting things together in their bags, on their vendors or in player owned structures.
