A zingBOX

Horn has been a 'material' used for containing 'materials' of various significances, for religious rites, a meditative talisman, of medicinal significance, snuff and drugs, for objects of contemplation, for remembrance of place, momento mori and little treasures of every kind. It all comes about as a consequence of 'the hunt', herding, 'placedness, and all manner of activities and not the least trading of goods and ideas. 

If one looks there is always a story. The stories are numberless and most often involve intimate knowledge. This 'box' is one such reliquary for a story, a momento mori and meditation. 

MATERIALS: Jersey Horn, Stg. Silver (Conductivity 11) &11 Basmati grains
