Lyon & Healy has been designing and building instruments since its establishment in 1864. From the creation of its first harp in 1889, Lyon & Healy has maintained a commitment to innovative design and superb craftsmanship. This dedication to excellence has made Lyon & Healy one of the principal harp makers in the world.
Lyon & Healy's attention to quality of sound has led their harps to be found within numerous orchestras and concert halls. The sound of a Lyon & Healy harp is marked by its articulate tone, clarity, and its ability to carry, whether playing solo or with an ensemble.
For more information on these Lyon & Healy pedal harps, click on a photo above.
Lyon & Healy Harps are made of the highest quality Hard Maple wood, known for its structural vitality as well as its sheer beauty. Rich and resonant Sitka Spruce are used for the soundboard, which responds to the most subtle vibrations called upon in the instrument.
| Most Lyon and Healy pedal harps are available in the following finishes:
See photo below for larger samples of these finishes.
Special veneers, such as birdseye maple (shown below on left), curly maple (center), or bubinga (on right) are sometimes available for particular models:
Some are also available with additional 23-karat gold leaf.
Each harp page will show which finishes are available for that particular model. Special order finishes may be available upon request.
Each harp comes with a dust cover and tuning key. All Lyon & Healy 47 string concert grand and 46 string semi-grand harps carry a 5-year limited warranty. All other pedal harps carry a 3 year limited warranty. Both warranties cover against defects in material and workmanship.
Trade-Up Programs If you are the original owner of either a Salvi or Lyon & Healy lever harp, you may wish to take advantage of our trade-in policy.
