About This Pipe

In Greek mythology, Zeus was playing with a goat, Amalthea, and accidentally broke her horn (I can almost hear Zeus's mom (Rhea) saying "See? It's all fun and games until someone gets a body part broken off!") In remorse, Zeus gave Amalthea back a magical horn to replace it and that horn would grant the person in possession whatever he or she wished for. It wasn't a large leap from that myth to today's Cornucopia, or "horn of plenty". Castello's Cornucopia is a limited edition run of a total of 163 pipes, this one is numbered 119, and the shape is split out amongst a fairly daunting number of finishes. Not only does it look fantastic in the Natural Vergin, what color comes closer to the shade of today's Cornucopia?
