I piscked it up cheaply - for a harp anyway at around ?400. The reason for wanting to take it, is that it is vrey rare to find one at that price and if I sold it I would expect to have to pay at least ?1500 to get another out there in NZ. It is also a particularly beautiful harp with gorgeous carving and marquetry work on it, so I doubt I could find another.

I had thought about making a wooden crate for it and enquring about taking it on as excess baggage, it is not massive - around 3 foot high I guess, but defninitely too big for hand luggage
