Description
Corne, gravé, taillé
Coton, cordage
Métal
Largeur : 17 cm
Longueur : 30 cm
Epaisseur : 5.7 cm
Poids : 282.2 grammes
Cor de chasse cônique, courbe et faceté de sept pans de différentes lageurs. La surface est entièrement gravée, exéptée sur une face. On observe des motifs issus du répertoire de la chasse : volatils, cheval, serpent, décors floraux. On retrouve également des décors géométriques gothiques : chevrons, croisillons, rosaces. Sur la face non décorée, on observe une inscription gravée et deux rosaces tracées au compas. Deux crochets se trouvent sur une des faces: un taillé directement dans la corne et un de métal visé dans la matière. Ces crochets permettent d'accrocher une cordelette en coton bleu et de la transporter facilement.
