King David Laser Harp
King David Laser Harp
This custom King David Laser Harp was designed and carved for the Jewish Children’s Museum in Brooklyn, New York. This is a custom carved Laser Harp, made from Oregon Myrtle wood with 7 green lasers, designed and carved for the “Jewish Children’s Museum” in Brooklyn, New York. It is carved as if it is made from part of a living Olive tree, with olive leaves and fruit, and with gilded gold highlights to the carving. There are three buttons, with the active one lit up, that change the music played from one traditional Jewish Melody to another. The laser beams are set so that the music is played in the correct order, with the speed of play determined by how fast the laser beams are broken. The Hebrew inscription says, “King David, Blessed by G_d.”
I will add more details about this project when I’m finished with the new custom harp I’m building right now. ~ Glenn Hill

Showing this harp’s green laser “strings”
Hello, I’m interested in receiving a quote on the K.David laser harp with 9 strings, with the extra being added next to the longest using the same spacing as the others please. Nine’s an important number right now 😉
Hi Jeff, pleas let em know if you are still interested ? The total cost for a laser harp like this would be in the $10,000 to $15,000 range, depending on how much wood carving , and if you wish a computer included.
More recently, Hill discovered a market niche after a Louisiana chef commissioned a gift for a Catholic healing center—a King David lyre made from ancient olivewood from the Holy Land.
This is true, and I am building King David Lyre`s with form 10 to 16 strings, form the ancient wood.
