STYLE 23 GOLD CONCERT GRAND
Created by Lyon & Healy in 1890, this intricate harp is symbolic of the Victorian era during which it was made. The Style 23 Gold has become the most recognized harp in the world and showcases the woodworking artistry of the Lyon & Healy craftspeople. Its sound is unmistakable: warm, brilliant and resonant. The highly-embellished floral carving at the crown, top of the column, base and feet is coupled with a fleur de lis pattern at the bottom of the column – both were notable features of the time. The carving of the Style 23 Gold is accented with 23+ karat hand gilding. A complimentary sweeping floral decoration accents the extended Sitka Spruce soundboard which also features a double Rosewood inlay along the edges. The Style 23 Gold features solid brass action plates with richly-stylized lettering and ornamentation.
