Osage recurve for Konny, 40#/28″ (No. 36)

I found a nice piece of flickered Osage in my pile, kinda natural camo. The stave needed a lot of corrections , twist and sideways. The recurves are steam bent.
A nice pair of cow horn overlays were put on. They have a 3 d effect, nearly transparent, a bit like mother of pearl. Never saw this before (hard to see in the pics). The upper comes wit an additional groove, as the new owner is used to use a stringer.
Arrow pass is an inlay of glue+earth pigments.

Length 61“ ntn
brace 6½“
40#/28“
