Buffalo Horns - Bubalus Bubalis - 90 cm - 21 cm - 27 cm - (2)

Buffalo Horns

Stunning pair of buffalo horns, in excellent condition, prepared by skilled hands and placed on two beautiful wooden pedestals to enhance their importance and beauty.
They presumably date from the Italian colonial era, more likely the first half of the 20th century, a date that can be inferred from the type of screws used to fix the horns to the pedestal: that type of screws was used until the 1950s, so the work was probably done earlier.
The horns are in excellent condition, with small signs of wear, almost insignificant, while the age of the objects is more evident in the details of the base; an easy restoration would be possible, but in our opinion it would destroy the charm of the antique and the lived-in feel.

They will become a beautiful collectible object in a house with a unique atmosphere.
