This horn measures about 10" overall with a curved, tapered body of 9" terminating in a relief, cone-shaped spout section. The main body is engraved with two hands holding a peace pipe, a Native American warrior shooting three arrows into a buck, another Native American with a knife, and four buffalo with a mounted Indian with spear in pursuit, and an Indian with a spear standing next to his Appaloosa horse. Top and bottom of the horn are engraved with triangle patterns. The convex plug is wooden and retained by a series of small iron pins; plug itself is decorated with both brass and iron tacks. Complete with two pieces of the original woven leather strap. CONDITION: This horn retains a honey patina with a couple minor areas of insect damage and one minor chip at base along plug. This is a very interesting horn which depicts a Native American buffalo hunt. PROVENANCE: Purchased from Kelly Kinzle.
