Distinctive and well done.

I would like to see another horn by your hand. Do you use a "maker's mark"? Ifso, I would appreciate a picture showing it.

This horn is creative and well done. The stonework scrim is especially well done; the mortar joints are realistic. I worked on trawlers when I was young and remember how comforting it was to catch the first glimpse of the light at night when returning. The old light at Port Isabel was no longer in use then, but the Coast Guard station had a light.
