Salaams all...but if it has no spout then its not a powder horn....I typed into web search yahoo European scrimshaw powder horns and all the horns for powder use had spouts...as already mentioned... So we have here scrimshaw but not for gunpowder. Is this a contender for the Miscellaneous section?

Besides inscribed powder horns, I seen hunting horns (as in fox hunts, etc) with scrimshaw decorations. Again, no open end, so not a trumpeter either...
