02-393 Cureton Delux Priming Horn w/Brass Finial

It has been a while since I have made a horn like this until friend/customer Gary Taillefer suggested he would like something on this order. So, I took a Cureton Deluxe Large horn and instead of lathe turning a wooden finial onto the baseplug, I mounted a Warren Small Acorn instead. This of course allows a person the ability to pour their powder into a somewhat larger opening, instead of the 5/16" spout hole. Also, instead of using solid brass nails around the base, I space 8 little 1/16" birch pegs around it instead.

Update: Effective November 15, I am out of the Warren Large and Small Acorns. So, I will be using the Treso Small Finial instead.

The horn comes complete with a lace carry strap and an ebony violin peg stopper.

The Priming horn is 4 to 6" on the bottom curve and will measure less than 2" in diameter. .
