Product DescriptionHere's an instrument to charm the pixies themselves! Known to the West since about the 10th century, the harp was adopted most widely by the bards and troubadours of medieval Eire (Ireland) and Cymru (Wales). We're proud to present this handsome example, crafted of handcarved rosewood and mahogany in the traditional, 19-string "lap-top" configuration of the Celtic harp. The frame is inlaid in an endless-knot motif and fitted with a row of metal tuning pegs, string guides, and pitch-shifters. A magnificent instrument, as decorative as it is musical! Includes wood-handled tuning key, Laurie Riley's Basic Harp for Beginners (Paperback, 77 pp.), and full set of replacement strings.
