Horns are naturally grown items and the size and quality varies considerably. Each horn has to be heated and shaped - a skilled and time-consuming process - and not every horn will turn out perfect. This is to be expected and natural cracks and colour variations must be accepted as normal. Obviously you would not receive a horn stick that had serious defects! If you require a crook as a working tool, for catching sheep, then please make that clear on your order form.

These sticks are not always
available immediately but we try to keep a few horn sticks
in stock - you can email
me to find out what we have before ordering if you need one
in a rush and I try to keep an updated indication of what is
in stock below. |

None in stock - made to order at present. Delivery time at least two months! |
You can still order carved crooks but you will have to wait around two to four months for delivery! |

Other objects can be carved or engraved on a horn handle - I have done several like this White Rose of Yorkshire, engraved and painted on both sides. |

Crook made of Rams Horn. A Border Collie is carved on the 'nose' of the crook. Nothing has been stuck on - the dog is part of the horn itself. Intricate work like this takes a lot of time and will be reflected in the price! |

|
Crook made of Buffalo Horn. A German Shepherd Dog is carved and painted lying on the nose. If you would like to discuss a special commision then please email me |
