Well coloured, thick walled, substantial tips cut from bulk stock of "Craft Grade" horns. Broadly categorised as "dark" ( black and dark brown finish) and lighter ( light brown, cream and olive tones ). The tip colour will diffuse back into lighter cream and white colours as you move towards the broad end of the piece. Generously cut - usually 8" - 10" in length.
Note: ALL cow horns suffer from splits. Should minor splitting be evident in these horns, ,then for stickmaking, it is assumed that they will be shanked on the nose end and "capped off" or "domed" ( with resin ).
That said, no cracking present will be to the potential detriment of the finished piece.
