Brass Boa Constrictor horn with large trumpet and clip on fly mesh. This is a super reproduction of the of the large flared trumpet Boa Constrictor horn, faithfully rerpoduced from an original pattern. This horn was a popular alternative to the snake's head horn and has been unavailable for many years. The overall length of this reproduction horn is over 6 feet, at 1925mm. The horn features our large, 90mm diameter horn bulb, brass horn reed, brass eared mount (with 4.75mm diameter mounting holes at 57mm hole centres), tapered brass flexible horn tube, brass collar, flared lost wax cast brass elbow finished with a spun brass 8" diameter trumpet with clip on spun brass fly mesh screen. The trumpet features a riveted 'Boa Constrictor Horn' badge as original. The main 8" diameter trumpet section and clip on fly mesh guard surround is hand spun, with the brash fly mesh secured in the rear of the guard by another brass spinning, again as original. Three brass clips - two hanging and one folding - secure the guard in place on the horn trumpet rim.
The brass collar is fitted with a soldered and screwed cast saddle mount, attached to a 4" long L shaped mounting bracket with an interlocking taper and domed nut connection. The L shaped mounting bracket base is an undrilled brass casting that can be drilled to suit at up to 60mm hole centres. This very attractive horn was for external mounting as an alternative to the snake's head horn. The tapered flexible horn tube can be bent into the position required, though should not be twisted relative to the collar. Original examples of this horn are now extremely rare, and we are pleased to be able to offer this well-made reproduction item. We offer this horn in polished brass or nickel plated finish, complete with Boa Constrictor horn badge as original. A super recreation, faithfully reproduced from an original pattern and made in Britain.
