Powder Horn The maker of this horn did a very unusual but interesting thing. Notice how the scraping to and through the various layers and shades of horn strata have virtually allowed him to create a painting of a stormy day at sea with a rolling, tossing sea at the bottom as well as a stormy, variously lighted sky above. He then scratched two square riggers and a bird in this tough environment. The initials "EH" are scratched on the horn . . . presumably the owner. The horn is 14 inches across the curve and is in excellent condition. $1450.00 F0C25256 Questions? Ask the Ferret!
