Horns

Horns can be used to make decorations, cane handles, musical instrumets, jewelry and buttons.  Gunpowder horns and drinking horns can also be made.

European Mounts and Full Shoulder Mounts are also stunning as eye-catching decoration and as a way to remember a grand ram!

If you have made items from your sheep’s horns, please send pictures and details for possible inclusion on this page!

HORN ANATOMY

HORNS of these sheep have an inner core.  
This picture shows the inner core and the
outer horn.  The inner core will usually not be
all the way to the tip of the horn.

As ram’s age, blood vessels, and sinus
cavities are growing up into the horn as the
horns are growing from the base out.
