African powder horn?

Hello all,

I picked up this item at a thrift shop the other day. It was labeled "African Powder Horn". I have no knowledge about such items so I am curious if anyone can tell me something more about it.

Thank you in advance.

Best,

Dave A.

HI YOUR POWDER HORN MOST LIKELY IS FROM THE KAREN/HMONG OR OTHER HILL TRIBS OF THAILAND AND VIETNAM

Hi Bandook. I would have never guessed this one. LOL. Interesting making use of the larger end of the horn for the fill point.
Thanks for Posting. Rick.
