I sold this little horn years ago was pleased to be able to offer it again

Rare early South Jersey bottle glass powder horn. Late 18th-early 19th century. 7 3/4" long. Most folks dont know its a fact that glass powder horns were actually used for gun powder or Rum or some other liqueur of the day. Glass horns have an early history in Europe predating America. Glass powderhorns were utilitarian long before they became decorative whimsys. This is an authentic for use powder horn made somewhere in Southern New Jersey. Unlike natural cow horn powder horns glass was a perfect way to keep your powder dry or a swig of Rum glass is more durable then many realize.
