Welcome to Mikel Harps
We are craftsman and manufacturers of Lever Harps. Mikel Harps began making harps in 2006.
We at Mikel Harps analyzed our market and found that the majority of local manufacturers were producing substandard harps. In addition, they did not employ any research and development. International buyers were dissatisfied with the poor quality instruments being produced and became wary about purchasing harps made from rosewood. At the other end, the manufacturer in Europe and America were making quality instruments, but the quality was reflected in their price, which was out of the range of students and ordinary musicians.
Mikel Harps realized, there is substantial discrepancy in the two markets. We founded our Research and Development team with the mission to “produce quality instruments at affordable prices”. Our enterprise has involved musicians from many nations, including professional harpists and harp makers. We used reverse engineering to achieve our quality product. Top quality woods are imported, including ash, and spruce. Harp strings are imported from the USA and Europe, CNC machine were installed, We invented Mikel Sharping Levers. It has taken many years of experimentation and hard work to produce fine quality instruments we offer today at affordable prices.
