Scrimshaw Powder Horn - Eagle & Arrows

Here is a sweet little pair of horns.  One powder horn & one primer horn.
This pair stays as a set.
I really wish I could take credit for making the two horns but I cannot.  My brother came across these beautifully created horns for me.  I then did the scrim work on them.
The images were ones I have seen on authentic, antique horns.  Since they are common images, I am sure all of you will recognize them. They are not recreated exactly, but did love the artwork.

The first one is the powder horn....





Here is the little primer horn.....


Below are is a rotation view of the primer horn.


I am still considering dying the horn to look a bit older so the photos may change up a bit.

Scrimshaw Powder Horn - Hunter & 1830 Ouisconsin Map on Back

Here is my hunter scene.  



If you check out the back, you will find an Ouisconsin Map.
No I did not spell that incorrectly, that is actually how Wisconsin appeared on the map in 1830.

Well I got a few requests to make another mermaid horn so I created the 3 sisters again, but a bit different this time as I never want my horns to be the same.

Scrimshaw Salt Horn - Mermaid

I have created a scrimshawed salt horn with the image of a mermaid.

For the moment, I will have to upload some images that are not very good for viewing in that this image wraps all the way around this very small horn. 

The horn itself has been sent off to my mentor for a critique, once back my husband will be helping me to try to set up a video image where we can rotate this image completely around for you to view. 


For now, if you can image, the mermaid is swimming around the horn, and meets up with her back fin.

Scrimshaw Primer Horn - White Dog

I recently did a smaller, primer horn for my husband. 
This little black, buffalo horn was really fun for me.  I loved the white ink on black look.


Off in the distance, another dog howls for all to hear.
