I'm the new owner of this mystery harp--it's currently on a UPS truck somewhere between Oklahoma and California--supposed to be delivered next Tuesday. I'll post to the Harplist and this list when I've had a chance to see it "up close and personal." The seller said the strings were not wire, but didn't know what they were--must be gut, then? The thought that it might be a child's harp is intriguing--and would make sense. It's certainly not a lap harp with a base like that, I wouldn't think! Thanks so much for all your input and ideas! Keep them coming--and thanks to Helen for posting my query on Mudcat! Kate in CA
