1Table319th Century French Buffalo Horn Snuff Box
In the 19th century black horn snuff boxes produced in Europe were made from imported buffalo horn and decorated with inlays of transparent lamina of horn, ivory, nacre or bone. This box is made of horn and the lid is decorated with a thin layer of buffalo bone or ivory (if so, a minuscule percent of the total weight - well less than 5%) and a circular nacre insert. The box is 3 1/4" by 1 1/2" and just under 1" high. The box is in very good and working condition.
