Horn – a diverse natural product

No animal is killed for its horn, the horn is just a by-product of slaughter that has been processed for thousands of years. The material is not only suitable for jewelry and decorative items, but was previously also used for everyday items. The horn we use does not come from animals whose existence is at risk or which are subject to species protection. Horn is a very robust material. The jewelry can be worn well in everyday life without having to be afraid of bumps or falling. So don’t just take your horn jewelry out of the closet for special occasions, but put it on whenever you want.

In the following steps, applications made of wood or metal are applied, finally the horn is framed as a chain pendant or earring.
