Horn Bowl25.0/299

The massive spiral horns of the mountain sheep furnished Northwest Coast craftsmen with material for many objects, chief among them bowls and spoons. The horn is very tough and hard, but when fresh and thoroughly soaked it can be carved. Heating the horn by steaming or boiling makes it somewhat soft and flexible, and it can be bent and shaped within limits. (Holm, Crooked Beak of Heaven, 1972)
