Wanted - cow or bull horn

[Broch]

Does anyone have a source of raw cow horn? I need some for a repro craft project and I'm having difficulty finding any (despite living in the middle of a farming community).

There's plenty of processed/polished stuff around, new and antique, which I may have to revert to, but I'd really like the raw material if possible.

I dont know how much they take for shipping to UK but I have made good experiences with danish sellers when it comes to horn or leather:

Horns - Real cow horns | Hornvarefabrikken - SHOP ONLINE

Buy raw horns from Hornvarfabrikken as decoration or drinking horn. The horns are perfect as drinking horns, "do it yourself" projects or as decoration - ONLINE

How big do you need them, would these suffice? https://www.ancodogtreats.co.uk/product/anco-naturals-empty-cow-horn

As far as I can remember these are unprocessed just washed.

Hard to tell from the photo really - but, I hadn't thought of pet supplies, thanks.

What are you doing with it?

I dont know what you mean by processed...polished up it will look a bit plastic. It is a thermoplastic after all.

Old horn is woody as it has dried out, and well handled horn is satin like.

It will eventually be polished and thin walled but the idea is to go through the whole process. All will be revealed if I get there
