Horns in process

Here are a few images of my latest commision.
The horn tip is based on a piece from Norway, said to be a croizer, probably Irish. To make the master, I repoussed and chased mirror images, soldered together, then pulled a rubber mold, and cast in bronze.
The conical tip was made by dipping the horn tip in wax, then carving the motifs. Still have to make the rubber mold...next I'll be etching the bands. Pat
