This horn is so pretty. It fades from gold, at the tip, to almost clear at the base. Oh, did I mention, it lights up! All you have to do is firmly press down on the button at the base and voila, LIGHT! The battery can be changed, from years of use. The velvet is also removable from easy cleaning. This is a great addition to any costume or outfit for fun times. It’s super easy to wear, just slide on a headband and you’re set. Enjoy!
