About Us
Established in 1990 and then based in Glasgow as Hillend Horncraft, our aim was to source dependable quality Water Buffalo Horn from sustained domesticated sources in India and other parts of the Far East.
We achieved this with growing success during the 1990’s and added an increasing diversity to our stock and involvement in the trade.
In 2000 we became the Hillend Horn Company Ltd, by then being firmly established in the supply of horn and antler as specialist craft materials and involved in the bulk acquisition and export of Scottish Red Deer Stag antler, a trade that we are still significantly involved in. In July 2005 we relocated North, renaming in the process and becoming the Highland Horn Company Ltd.
We now operate from a modern industrial unit in Alness, continuing our predominately mail order based business as before, whilst adding specialist client based sourcing and import of niche trade materials such as Damascus steel, Sambar stag antler, silver, nickel alloy & brass castings and spinnings.
You can catch up with us at two annual shows , being Northumberland County Show (Bank Holiday Monday, end of May each year) and the Border Shepherd’s Show (Yetholm, first Saturday in October), where a large range of stickmaking and craft related product is displayed for sale.
Enquire with us please if you need further detail on any of these.
We carry a constant stock of Buffalo horn in excess of 20 tonnes.
