26 String Celtic Wire Harp
While modern harps are strung with nylon, the celtic harps of old were strung with wire. In
keeping with that tradition, I am pleased to offer my rendition of a wire strung Celtic harp.
The rich resonant sound of the
wire strings must be heard to be appreciated. Unlike other harps, you play this with your fingernails rather than the pads of
your fingers.
Features: All hardwood construction. Cherry, Walnut, or Maple are the norm (pictured above is made
from Walnut), although if you prefer I can use a different wood of your choice.
Robinson sharping levers on all f's & c's
(more can be added for $6.00 each).
It's range begins at F below middle C, and goes up to high C.
We can also do special artwork on the harp for you. To see a brief gallery of the art we have done in the past - CLICK HERE
