Welcome to Campbell Harps We are historical harp builders in Port Townsend, Washington, USA. Our goal is to reproduce early harps in order to recreate the sound of the music played on them. Our harps are based on research and study of surviving instruments in museum collections. This site shows some of the harps we build. Please feel free to contact us to discuss any of these instruments. Catherine and Bill Campbell |
