G. F. HARP WORKSHOP
30-string kit harp, personalised for the customer.
Wire-strung harp, based on the 16th/17th century
'Fitzgerald of Kildare' harp.
Yes, rarely, and only on commission, I MAKE harps!
Also this one - a Welsh triple harp, 6th E to 1st G, 145cm (4' 9") high, 8kgs (18lbs) in weight!
A far more usual line of work: an antique-harp's body, ripped apart by over-stringing of the instrument...
...repaired and the finish touched up.
A full restoration of an Erard Grecian style harp:
From this
...and this
...to this
...and this
...and THIS!
And another one - 6th C to 1st G, still only 155cm (5'1") tall and weighing in at 9,5 kgs (21lbs).
