Roosebeck Early Music Shop 19-String Gothic Harp

This is an authentic Gothic harp, designed by The Early Music Shop, U.K., from iconographical examples of the French Gothic harps. The body, arm and pillar are Sheesham and the soundboard is ply. There are 19 DuPont Nylon stings, tuned F3-C6. Unlike modern harps, the Gothic harp is not strung from the back. Each string is held into the soundboard by tension and a small button topped peg. This is a non-standing lap harp with delicate lines. The graceful arm and pillar are accented with fluid curves. You will love this little beauty. 32 inches long by 15 inches deep. The base of the resonator is 5 inches wide by 2.25 inches deep. A tuning tool and extra string set included.
