That is the whole design, and it is the reason the piece is harder to make than it looks: on a mirror this size every curve has to be truly fair, because the reflection shows any flat spot or ripple immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe horn is not a plain round tube. It carries a \u003cstrong\u003efaceted twist\u003c\/strong\u003e — a defined ridge running the length with flat planes falling away on either side — so as it tapers, the highlight travels down the ridge and the two faces catch light at different angles.

Tradition holds that it should be given rather than bought for yourself, and that it works until it breaks — at which point it has done its job and taken the harm instead of you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy You’ll Love It:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Mirror Polish\u003c\/strong\u003e – Bright from collar to tip, no satin anywhere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFaceted Twist\u003c\/strong\u003e – A defined ridge with flat planes either side, so the highlight travels as it tapers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraditional S-Curve\u003c\/strong\u003e – Thick through the shoulder, drawn to a fine point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquared Collar\u003c\/strong\u003e – A clean horizontal cut between horn and bail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy Chain Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e – 7mm bail opening, sized for a Cuban or Franco\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolid Gold Throughout\u003c\/strong\u003e – No stones and no plating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe chain shown in the photographs is not included.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade to order, turnaround time is typically 2-4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.7” in height including bail; 1.37” without bail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBail Opening\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMirror polish throughout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNot included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEstimated Weight by Purity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePurity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApprox.
