Our Horn Beads are made from the Horns of Cara Water Buffalo. Cara Horn is a natural black in color, but can be bleached and dyed a variety of colors, from bone white, to amber, brown and deep red. These Cara Horn Beads can be polished to a smooth, shiny finish, or have a variety of designs etched into them. The larger holes on these beads make them ideal to fit Leather Cording, Organic Cotton Cording, Su-Preme Cord, and Hippie Hemp.
