Ardival
Harps —
Historical Scottish Harps and Clarsachs. Situated in the North of Scotland,
our timber is from Highland farms and estates. Exceptional care, sound
craftsmanship and value are the hallmarks of these beautiful harps. All work
carefully controlled by a family company. Our Wire-strung clarsachs are made
according to principles seen in surviving Scottish and Irish instruments, the
sound boxes hollowed-out from single blocks of timbers, and strung with brass.
We also build 15th and 16th century style Bray harps, and 8th through 10th
century style Pictish harps.

Cambria
Harp Kits &Plans
— Building your own harp can give you a sense of satisfaction as well
as a quality harp at an affordable price. We offer the Cambria line of
Folk Harp Kits & Plans. These are very good quality instruments,
suitable for students, teachers, travelers, and those who do not wish to
hock the family heirlooms just to get a harp. The Cambria harps are
compact, and travel well. Tone is superb, with excellent volume. The
string band is well balanced tonally, with standard pedal harp spacing
(except for the Wire string 22, which has standard spacing for a wire
string harp).
