Lyre Harp for Sale

The lyre harp is one of the oldest living links to Celtic music, an instrument that's carried the sound of Scotland and Ireland's folk tradition across centuries, still played much the same way today. Ours are handcrafted from rosewood, and every harp arrives ready to play, no separate purchases needed,  tuning key, spare strings, and a protective carry bag all included. The easiest way to choose one is by string count, which we've broken down below. Find your harp below.

Who can Buy our Lyre Instrument

First-time players picking up a harp instrument for the first time will find the lower string counts an easy way to start. Folk and Celtic musicians already performing will want something reliable enough for the stage, whether that's a lyre harp or one of our Flutes and the higher string counts give that range. And if you're buying as a gift, a lyre harp is a genuinely meaningful piece of Irish or Scottish heritage, not just another lyre instrument in a box.
