Here is a picture of a pouch and horn set I cobbled up this past summer.

Wow! Very nicely done. I like the eagle on the bag, it is a good combo for the Tansel style horn. Tell me, is the spout tip applied or a screw tip?

I will try to answer all at once here if I can. The eagle on the flap was brush painted free hand and then distressed as the bag was antiqued. The spout is lathe turned, then fitted and applied with pins. And thanks for the kind words. I sincerely appreciate them.

Theres not much to say about the painting except its brush painted on free hand...and that Im not much of a painter. Either oil or acrylic paint adheres very well to leather, but you should use traditional basic colors.
The oval is an antique plain brass shoulder plate. I decopaged a federal shield on it. Decopage is in fact a very P.C. decoration technique, and seemed an approrriate way to decorate the plate for this set and not actually ruin it as an antique.
Thanks for all of the interest.
