Made out of the top half of a table decoration resembling a fish which itself was made of a bovine's horn. Left fin of the fish had come off and also part of the tail was damaged. I unscrewed the top half from the bottom half and drilled a hole from the tip of the horn towards the cavity inside the horn, soon realizing that the curve is too much to reach the cavity in a straight line. As the tail (tip of the horn) was damaged, I decided to cut off the damaged part making it also possible to drill in a straight line into the cavity. I inserted a tube inside the fish, topping it with a chrome pipe fitting as a bowl and filling the gaps and securing it into place with putty.
