Was browsing some old images I had taken at the Tervuren (Belgium), "Royal Museum for Central Africa", a few years ago - they had some vitrines with 19th century material from Arab slavers/traders who had penetrated as far as the Congo area. This powder horn is included, which although made of ivory, seems to have a similar form to the one I posted.

For academic interest for those who study this type of material...
