Monk FactsThis handsome natural horn shoehorn has a handle made from Scottish deer antler. This is a medium-sized horn, which can be used for travel, but is also big enough to put on large boots. You must always use a shoehorn to put on a good pair of leather shoes, no exceptions. Abbeyhorn was established in 1749 in Bewdley, Worcestershire by the Humpherson family. In 1912 the horn works moved south to Gloucester, then, 20 years later, to its present site in Kendal, near England’s Lake District. Abbeyhorn have, over their 265-year history, developed a reputation for making the world’s finest natural horn products. Made with immense skill and using the finest materials, an Abbeyhorn product exudes refinement and luxury as well as being a beautiful and practical item. The company sources its cow horn from the Ankole cattle of West Africa, which are one of the few sub-species of cow that still grows long horns. Abbeyhorn also uses natural Scottish stag antler, cow bone and buffalo horn in many of its products. All Abbeyhorn’s materials (apart from the stag antlers, which fall off naturally) are sourced as ethically as possible as by-products of the meat industry.
