Description
An antique regency / George IV 43 string double action pedal harp by Sebastian Erard 18 Great Marlborough Street London - in the Grecian design with Fluted column and gilded Grecian capital . Stamped number 1816.
Finished in June 1814 ( see photos of the original Erard Ledger and historical database info )
43 string from 7th E to 1st E.
The harp is in full playable order and fully string with soft gauge wires and low tension gut strings, many recently purchased from the harp studio.
There appears to have been recent restoration of the harp as the mechanism is particularly good and the brass is highly polished. It has had replacement tuning pin.The shutters were also removed at that time allowing easier restringing .
This is a fully playable harp with the best of both worlds having a good very clean mechanism , and the classic look of a regency antique harp.
As you can see the soundboard is good with very little belly at all. The column and neck are both straight and without cracks or bowing .
Ideal for a professional or a student or interior designer .
Viewing welcome
Located in the North West UK.
