1850-1950 Folk Art Rustic Wood Guitar Harp Decorative Wall Hanging or Sculpture

About the Item

Fantastic 20th Century Folk Art Rustic wood Guitar Harp or Harp Guitar decorative wall hanging or sculpture. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, this is in its original rustic condition with all its wonderful patina! Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1850-1950’s. ARE YOU READY TO ROCK!!!!!????? Well… that may be a bit of an overstatement… a stretch anyway, no… actually you can’t play it at all… BUT this fantastic Rustic Guitar Harp wall sculpture will definitely ROCK your decor!! These instruments have been around Europe since the late 1700’s and developed in America particularly in Chicago and the Pacific Northwest in 1890. I certainly don’t claim to be an expert in this department but after researching my eyeballs out I feel confident enough to tell you about its composition! First of all,… it’s HUGE! LOL… but it will look FANTASTIC hanging solo on a spacious wall or you could just lean it on against wall or in a corner of the room and talk about vintage/antique character!!! We can’t be completely certain of its birth but judging by the materials and the wood, we know it could be anytime between 1850-1950, possibly earlier. It’s been around a minute or two!!! It is composed of black Rustic wood tuning pegs and fretboard and a Rustic brown wood soundboard/side harp. Needless to say, it bears lots of gorgeous “perfectly imperfect” patina and it has no finish on the wood making it feel even more Rustic. Also, we are not offering this piece as an actual instrument to play… that horse left the barn a while ago! Haha… But it’s an absolutely marvelous gem of historical instruments and nostalgic Folk Art, I mean… the stories it could tell are probably mind-blowing!! If you are a music or guitar enthusiast, this is your dream piece, it’s a MUST have!! It is going to be fabulous among other musical pieces whether in a man cave, music room, or family room. Something as cool as this Guitar Harp doesn’t come along very often. What’s the hold up? You better get your groove on… and make it YOURS!!!

Circa, 20th Century. Note: Shipping is possible via parcel which may reduce shipping costs Hey there! Do you need a hand? Or SEVEN?? We are here to help!! We have seven Folk Art style vases with molded hands of many vibrant colors to offer to you! This set includes 2 white, 2 maroon or burgundy, 1 green, 1 yellow, and one bright red molded plastic vases. That’s 35 fantastic fingers!! They are round at the bottom and kind of oval or egg shaped at the top. They are inner lined with burlap for extra reinforcement, but they are light weight, so if you want to put something a little heavier inside like an artificial plant, you may want to put a weight of some kind in the base. They will hold water, but for a “handy” tip… we certainly DO NOT recommend drinking from them! They are best used as unique, eye-catching décor!! They would host a wonderful spider plant...
