Door Harps
The door harp originated mostly in Sweden and has evolved over time. It is estimated the door harp has been around for about 700 years. It was inspired by the Chinese Feng Shui tradition of hanging bells or chimes around doors and windows to “alter the Chi” (good energy in, bad energy out).
The Swedish adopted this idea but instead of bells, they incorporated the strings and beads which you see on the modern-day door harp. Usually hung on the inside of the front door, it signifies welcome, luck, health, and prosperity to all that pass through the door. Turn the tuning pegs until you find the sound you like and enjoy this unique creation from Michigan’s shores!
