Description
I just picked up a Harp Lute at an estate auction. I believe it to be produced by Edward Light sometime in the early 19th century. There are no marks. I have seen several online pics of similar models, but not this exact design.
It is in very good shape overall, with some light cracks in the body, but overall very sturdy and solid. Missing all but three strings and a few tuning pins as well.
Looking for information on validation of my assumptions, and a possible value. Would love to find some replacement tuning pins and strings if anyone has a source.
