Beautiful, Mystical Natural Horn - Approved by GREENPEACE
Sometimes we discover a line of products, so unique - so special, that we are (momentarily) speechless. Then our speech returns with a vengeance, and we want to tell everyone about our find.
That's how we felt when we came across the stunning natural bovine horn items made by the artisans for De Renaudin. Whether we're admiring the jewelry, the fabulous serving utensils, or the wonderful wine bar accessories; we are amazed by the quality of the craftsmanship and the quality of the natural horn.
De Renaudin employs horn experts who travel the world in search of the finest quality bovine horns. Their collection is mainly found in selected areas of South America and Europe. And these specialists make sure that no harm is ever done to any of the animals.
In fact, one of the reasons we chose to carry De Renaudin products (beside the fact that they're gorgeous) is that the company is dedicated to protecting endangered species; and thereby uses only eco-friendly by-products. And the use of natural bovine horn is a luxurious substitute for elephant ivory and tortoiseshell.
The artisans use four different techniques to create the jewelry and accessories. They cut to get slices of the horn, laminate to get the thickness, sand to get the shape, and finally polish in order to achieve the beautiful satin finish.
The unique, exotic beauty of natural bovine horn has been recognized by the world's most prestigious fashion houses; and De Renaudin has designed special collections for a number of renowned designers, including Yves Saint Laurent, Emanuel Ungaro, John Galliano and Pierre Balmain-Oscar de la Renta.
Go into most any museum and chances are you'll find antiquities (jewelry, combs, boxes) made from natural horn. Mystical beliefs about natural bovine horn go back to the Middle Ages. In fact, legend has it that bovine horn brings good luck to its bearer - think about the spiritual Horn of Plenty.
We can't state that wearing our natural horn choker will bring you luck; or using the handsome cheese servers, or bottle stoppers, will make your life magical. But we can state that you will be thrilled with the beauty and singularity of any of our De Renaudin products. (Find these luxe items in Tabletop, Jewelry, Gifts For The Hostess, Gifts For Men, Bar Ware and Wine Bottle Stoppers.)
