Dutch Oliphant
Ancient oliphant (hunting horn) made by strongly thinning the tusk, so as to allow the mouthpiece to be obtained in high relief for playing. The lower end is carved with floral decorations and the depiction of St. Merphary on horseback. The object has undergone a finely executed restoration at the end of the horn.
