Bag and Horn Set by Tom Greco

Artisan Tom Greco is well known as a maker of distinctive, top-quality frontier art. Not surprisingly, he’s contributed a standout bag and horn set for this years CLF fundraising auction. The body of Greco’s unique possibles bag is crafted from goat hide, which is richly colored with a brown leather dye and a sealing coat of grease. The warm color of the bag contrasts nicely with the outer flap, as well as the flap of a smaller pocket, which are made from alligator skin.

Greco stained the matching powder horn with multiple coats of chromic acid. The set comes complete with a hickory ball starter as well as a buffalo horn vent pick and horse hair pan brush, both of which are accented with wooden beads.
