Biblical Lyre Harp - Chestnut

Chestnut Lyre – 1/2 Shekel Harp, Handcrafted in Israel

Rooted in ancient tradition and inspired by the music of King David, the Chestnut Lyre is a beautiful, functional instrument that blends history, craftsmanship, and melody. Handcrafted in a small workshop in the historic village of Rosh Pina near the Sea of Galilee, each lyre is a labor of love—crafted with care, heart, and soul.

Whenever possible, the artist uses locally sourced, recycled, or reclaimed wood from tree prunings in the Galilee region, giving each piece a natural, sustainable story. The result is a stunning combination of wood, metal, and nylon that not only looks timeless but sounds heavenly.

This lyre is tuned to the C Major scale:
C D E F G A B C D E F G
It produces clear, warm tones and is suitable for meditation, worship, educational use, or simply enjoying the peaceful resonance of ancient music.
