This horn has a faceted tip, ring, lightly faceted throat, and smooth body engraved with numerous ships, figures, a spread wing patriotic eagle with stars, a banner in its beak, and a shield with a fouled anchor; animals, foliage, and "BENJAMIN S. BARBER * OF RICHMOND, HIS HORN: NOV 7 1822." This is appears to be for Benjamin Spencer Barber (1755-1834) or his son of Benjamin Spencer Barber Jr. (1800-1886) of Richmond, Rhode Island.

Very good with attractive aged patina, absent stopper, chipped ring, small hole in the body, general mild wear, and distinct engraving and inscription.
