  • A beautiful piece!  For gunpowder???

  • Yess i guess so Edith, event if for commercial purposes they have soldered the long branch to the main body, which does not allox the gun powder to open anymore from the right side, it does however still open from the left

  • Harald posted a piece almost identical to this a while ago, as a powder horn. They are very nice. His is still easily accessible if you go to his album on Oman, which is very good.
