Harp Jewelry
The harp is historically the national instrument of the Celts, and is a common symbol among them. The Irish, for example, fly a harp on their flag, put a harp on their money, and name their beer after it. The Scots played the harp long before they abandoned it for the bagpipes. The Welsh play mostly pedal harp today; however, their historical harp is the triple-strung harp.
See our lapel pins page for harp lapel pins.
Please check the size of each piece carefully against a ruler before ordering. We give measurements of all jewelry pieces on this site so that you will know their size in advance; this will save disappointment, returning pieces, etc.
