Beautiful hand carved and polished horn in the shape of a Monstera Palm frond. Local and fair, all brass jewelry findings are sourced in US and made by independent metal artists.
This unique, hand-crafted horn product is sustainably made from the horns of the Ankole-Watusi, or Ankole Longhorn, a breed of cattle native to western Uganda and parts of East Africa. These distinctive horns are a recycled byproduct of the food industry and are purchased directly from the cattle keepers, providing revenue for local cattle keeping communities. The horn is then hand carved and polished according to Maadili designs by a small scale artisan community.
High variability of horn color ensures that no two pieces are the same
