| Look: | No paint or stain obscures the wood's red and gold grain-lines. Carving is minimal -- a delicate rose at the end of the graceful curved arm. Instead, the maker has chosen to highlight the beauty of the wood, with its spiral grain and glorious, intense coloration. A simple gold plaque is affixed to the bottom of the soundboard, positioned to rest against the musician's heart as he plays. |

Recall
The harp has an elegant, triangular shape across which run its many strings. The long slender body has inconspicuous sound holes on either side of its many strings that run from the base to the gracefully curved upper arm that holds the tuning pins. It is just small enough to be played from the lap or against the chest.
