BLOWING HORNS / HORN BUGLES Our horn bugles ( or blowing horns ) are hand made in England from a single piece of cow horn. The mouth piece does not contain a reed and so is blown with pursed lips like a trumpet, producing a deep resonant sound. Blowing horns were used in Viking and medieval times as a means of communication, to keep in contact with your friends (e.g. during hunting) or to warn people of your approach (Blowing your horn was a way of showing that you were not engaged in any criminal activity!) Length usually in the range 40-45cm. These are natural products, so shape, size and colour will vary.
