Restorations

The Thurau-Harfenmanufaktur is also specialized in the restoration of early pedal harps. By restoration we understand the conscientious and sincere preservation of technical, optical and acoustical qualities of an instrument while keeping as much of the orginal state as possible.

For restoration purposes, it’s necessary to calculate the historical string tension to bring back the orginal timbre of the instrument. To rescue valuable harps, we will invent solutions even in apparently hopeless cases.

Our service engagement for restoration has already convinced public collection like the Historisches Museum Basel or the Museum für Völkerkunde in Berlin. In case you’re in possession of a harp needing restoration, we would gladly give an expert opinion on the matter, without any further obligations for you. In our manufacture you´ll always find a number of 18th and 19th century pedal harps in all stages of restoration.

Please don´t hesitate to contact us for an offer.
