horn
Description: Large, polished [water buffalo] horn. Curved shape. Wider at the top, with a rounded rectangular opening, and forming into a sharp point at the bottom of the horn. The inside is hollow. The colour of the horn goes in a gradient from a slightly translucent, light brown at the top, to a darker greenish brown, and eventually to very dark brown, almost black at the tip. Towards the top, where the opening is, there are bands of texture in the surface of the horn, which appear as dark brown horizontal lines. These continue on the back of the horn as well.
