Discover the Melodic Charm: Pre-Owned Clark Harps Await!

Clark harps have a long and storied history in the early twentieth-century harp world. Started in 1908 in Chicago, these fine harps quickly rose in prominence and popularity that the small manufacturing company could not keep up with demand and launched into a partnership with Lyon and Healy that lasted until the 1930’s. Don’t be misguided by the small frame of these fine harps…they have a remarkable tone: both clear and vibrant and are used by professional players frequently. The harp also has a lovely base with legs that it fits into with a satisfying “click” The base is hinged so that when released, the harp tilts backwards into a playing position.

Each harp is highly ornamented with classic gilded patterns of the early 20^th Century. These are 29-string harps.

These harps are original to the Clark workshop in Chicago in 1911 and 1914. Both have been fully restored and are in excellent condition, although the levers are old (blade style, mostly) and the strings need replacement. We are waiting to hear what the next owner’s preference are: this would be a lovely gut-strung harp, but synthetic strings would also work.
