~ Hi CW Gang ~
HA - Lookie, lookie what I just found. Would you call these engraved, or carved?? Are they cow horns or something else? I come from a farm but I am thinking ??? Africans or something as there is an elephant on there?? Do not see any signature. Worthy item? Any info will help. HELP -- WOULD this be considered FOLKART ??
HA - One man's junk, is another person Treasure!!!!!!
Thanks for LOOKING // LOVING !!

Kyratango is right on. Carved water buffalo horns are also readily available from the Philippines, The tend to be larger and more detailed. Many are listed on eBay.
