Horn W/Four Bands
« on: January 15, 2014, 06:05:06 PM »
 
 The first pic is a before shot, somebody had painted it Blue. Trimmed up it is about 12 ½” around the outside curve, the base is Apple and about 2”. The tip is of two part antler, 3 pins hold it in place, the bands are also held in place with 3 each. The body color is AF with Brown shoe polish over it, the bands were heated in some
left over dyes, I call Brown.

A beautiful horn Tim.  It's hard to believe that horn was hiding under the finish of the original horn.

Yup! I like it Tim. Good save as it has a nice curve. Who'd have guessed?

It takes vision to see that end product in what you started with.
Really nice
