A large but
elegant high capacity supply horn. The black,
chocolate and grey body is long and slender with
a pronounced double twist for right-hand carry.
The high-domed “beehive” dark walnut
base has turned rings, incised lines and a hollowed
interior to increase powder capacity. A brass
tack finishes the dome. The spout is polished
ebony, intricately turned, and unscrews for filling.
Traditional twisted metal staples are secured
to the tip and base for strap attachment.
The horn
body is 13.5" along the back curve,
the spout is 5”, and overall length from
base finial to spout plug is 21". The base
is 3.25” in diameter.
The cotton strap
is hand-decorated and antiqued, with brass d-rings.
The strap is secured to horn with leather thongs.
