This unique Lyon & Healy Style 16 Gold, built in 1923, was beautifully restored in 2016 by the Lyon & Healy factory in Chicago.
Restorations and repairs included a new neck, a re-set to the base and column, action overhaul and some gold leaf restoration. A letter stating all repairs done in available. The harp is considered in excellent condition for its age.
The harp has a big sound, an even tone and a clear, crisp upper register. The look and sound are fantastic. The straight soundboard makes the harp a bit easier to move than a current concert grand. The gilding is a more deeper shade than found on modern gilded harps, giving the harp a period feel.
Asking price includes a dolly, stand, bench, strings, soft cover and tuning key. There is the original shipping trunk available, if interested.
Previously owned by harpist Jack Nebergall, this harp is a wonderful example of Lyon & Healy's early model craftmanship and impressive sound.
