(“The Underground Glow” – the radiance born from raw earth and forged sound)**
The French artisanal jaw harp, hand-forged by a young French craftsman whose work blends rustic strength with refined acoustic precision. Its name, L’Éclat Souterrain — “The Underground Glow” — symbolizes the moment when light emerges from the depths, reflecting the instrument’s dual nature: raw, earthy texture paired with a clear, luminous tone.
Its hammered ring provides a secure, tactile grip, while the precisely shaped tongue offers crisp response and excellent control. The sound unfolds with a grounded, dark fundamental enriched by sparkling overtones — as if a hidden radiance were rising from beneath the surface.
