Welcome to Telynau Greville Harps.

22 String Lap Harps

I manufacture quality 22 string lap harps in Walnut or Maple with spruce soundboards and finished with Danish Oil.                                                          The back of the harp is shaped and designed to sit comfortably on your lap.

The harps are tuned in the key of  'C' with brass semi tone levers on the C and F strings, enabling easy changes to the keys of G, D and relative minors. The harps are strung with high quality nylon strings ranging from .60 (bottom E) through to .25 (top E) covering three octaves.

Complete with tuning key.

18 String Lap Harps

As above, tuned in 'C' with no semi tone levers.

Design

The design, based on an early Medieval Bardic ( lap) Harp, incorporates some homage to modernity i.e. brass sharpening levers and sound board eyelets. Each harp is an individual, no two are exactly alike. I produce only two at a time, keeping all instruments for at least three months until they 'settle down'.
