                                               www.irishharps.ie the new smartphone friendly website where you can scroll through many pictures on the wide range of instruments I make .

how the scroll is carved on the fore pillar

this is the finished harp with 35 strings at it’s home in the UK

some detail pictures of the shoulder and soundbox signature features  which are unique to my harps

 native sycamore wood.

Santos rosewood in sycamore inlay work.The carving is based on an orchid .The laminated shoulder is done with walnut and the boxwood bridge strip is edged with hand cut recycled rosewood veneer taken  from an old piano. Also featured a new floral design for the next harp in cherry wood.Based on a bell flower.

Beautiful Irish  sycamore from county Offaly.Note the fiddle back grain .

As on all my harps the string starts on the soundboard through a rosewood or ebony “washer” which I make myself.The grain in the washer runs across the bridge strip so the string won’t cut into the wood and muffle the sound.This part is mostly done on other harps with metal or plastic washers that can affect the sound badly.
