Thank you for clearing that up Sajen. Am always amazed of the ingenuity of tribal groups; am sure it would be a hell of a job to make thin slizes of horn!!! Although they might cook the horn first to make it more soft, still

Yes now you mention it Dimasalang, I know those salakots which you mean, with often silver (embossed) tops and rims; see pic. Indeed a similarity I hadnt thought of before.

And Sajen; wel I keep on getting amazed (and feeling stupid I didnt dare a shot) as I have seen sold a beautifull OLD kapkap -Solomons isld shell addornment- with shellstring sold for . . . . . . . .$172.00 this week!! Aarghhh
When I spot a nice one will notice you (as I'm not buying them).
