An eight-pedal harp made by leading London makers Sebastien and Pierre Erard in the mid-19th century. Its double action and gothic decoration set the style for today’s concert harp. This instrument belonged to the musical Bryant family from Efail Isaf near Pontypridd and was played by the renowned Welsh harpist Tom Bryant. Telyn wyth pedal a wnaed gan y gwneuthurwyr blaenllaw o Lundain Sebastien a Pierre Erard yng nghanol y 19eg ganrif. Roedd ei gweithred ddwbl a'r addurniad gothig yn gosod yr arddull ar gyfer y delyn gyngerdd heddiw. Roedd yr offeryn hwn yn perthyn i'r teulu Bryant cerddorol o Efail Isaf ger Pontypridd a byddai’n cael ei chwarae gan y telynor enwog o Gymru, Tom Bryant.
