Bought this horn today at an antique shop and I’m trying to find out when it was made, by whom and how/with what materials? I know that the metal parts are made of tin because these are sometimes called “tin horns”. There are no initials or any readable or otherwise discernable engravings on the horn or on the tin parts. A reverse image search lead me to an old auction that was concluded a while ago: https://www.tradera.com/item/341133/705890164/dryckeshorn-cornucopia-tenn-och-horn-norge
The term “Cornucopia” didn’t help either and mine is missing a cap whose underside probably would have provided me some information.
Anyway, the pattern and engravings on the tin parts are about the same, but the one from the auction is missing the hind leg that mine has. Two more pictures:
UPDATE: This item on Etsy is similar too. And they say it’s Norwegian from the 1950’s. https://www.etsy.com/listing/4414888836/norwegian-tinn-pewter-drinking-horn-with
Unless you can find hallmarks on it, it’s specific provenance would be difficult to determine. You would be best served if you found an appraiser that deal with this sort of item to give the best info on your drinking horn.
Oh, that was such a good opportunity to use the word “ascertain” and you blew it!
I shall look for an appraiser. 👍
