En smålandsharpe er et lille, mekanisk strengeinstrument fra Sverige. De blev bygget mellem 1885 og 1915. Min smålandsharpe har en stiftvalse og aktiveres med et håndsving som på en lirekasse. Stiftvalsen har 12 melodier. 2 af dem er salmer fra "Den Haefnerske koralbok" ("Min synd, o Gud, mot dina bud" og "Vak upp, min sjæl, gif ära"). 10 melodier er danseviser fra Vimmerbyegnen i Småland i Sydsverige. Komponisterne til danseviserne og den person, der har stiftet valsen, er ukendte.

A Småland harp is a small, mechanical stringed instrument from Sweden. They were built between 1885 and 1915. My Smålandsharpe has a pin roll which is activated by a crank like on a barrel organ. The pin roll has 12 melodies. 2 of them are hymns from "Den Haefnerske koralbok" ("Min synd, o Gud, mot dina bud" and "Vak upp, min sjæl, gif ära"). 10 melodies are dance songs from the Vimmerby region in Småland in southern Sweden. The composers of the dance songs and the person who has pinned the roll waltz are unknown.
