1976 Franklin Mint Bicentenial Powderhorn made of the finest Baccarat Crystal, inlaid with solid sterling silver.
It comes in a green display box lined w/ green velour and a wooden mounting cradle. The horn is 11" long and 6" tall when mounted in the cradle. The display box measures 13" across x 9" deep x 3 1/2" tall. 

During Revolutionary time carved powderhorns were a highly regarded form of art. To help pass the time in the lull between battles and during the long winter encampments, soldiers inscribed their powderhorns with intricate designs. With a sharp knife, artistic skill and a creative imagination, a soldier could transpose a utilitarian object into a thing of beauty.

This commemorative features an original design created by the distinguished artist Isa Barnett, who has captured the heroic spirit of the patriots perservering during the bitter winter encampments to serve the cause of freedom.

This Franklin Mint Bicentennial Powderhorn is a reminder of the suffering endured by our forefathers in their struggles to achieve independence.

The design on the horn was created by the artist Isa Barnett. It is hand blown of Baccarat crystal and it is capped and banded in solid sterling silver with a sterling silver chain.

The beautiful horn is sparkling "Baccarat" crystal, and has a sterling silver lid on one end and a collar and chain on the other.

"I was always amazed by Da Vinci's overwhelming achievement in creating "The Last Supper," Fritz Weiland says, "and I knew the painting was gradually disappearing from the wall. I decided it would be a good thing to create "The Last Supper" in metal, to make it permanent so it would never be lost to us. This interpretation of "The Last Supper" was first conceived 50 years ago by the brilliant artists and engraver Fritz Weiland, and protected and preserved throughout a career of achievement. He retired in 1975, at the age of 75, as master engraver of The Franklin Mint. This is the first issue of this work of art.

Weiland worked from a reproduction of "The Last Supper" that was unclear because of the original work done by Leonardo in the 15th century was faded. So he engraved what he thought Leonardo would have wanted. Weiland engraved the work directly into steel, in reverse, creating in one hand-operation the dies from which the finished ingot was struck. It was struck in relieve, then antiqued to bring out the beauty of the work. Each ingot is issued custom mounted in a hardwood frame.

The surface area of the ingot is more than 7.5 square inches. The reverse of the ingot bears Fritz Weiland's signature, etched into the ingot, to certify the authenticity of the work.

Created by the world famous craftsmen of the Franklin Mint. The national Historical Society Civil War Chess Set is a dramatic and fascinating tribute to the heroes of both North and South. The playing pieces are richly-detailed three-dimensional portrait sculptures of the great Generals on both sides, as well as enlisted men.

Every figure is a new and original work, created expressly for this unique chess set. Some are shown standing, some seated, some kneeling, some mounted on horseback. Each piece is captured for the ages in solid pewter, then set atop a solid brass pedestal base embellished with a circular band of colored enamel---blue for the soldiers of the Union, gray for those of the Confederacy. 

Crafted for the Society by The Franklin Mint, each figure is scaled to suit the role assigned to it in the game of chess. The set includes a handsome pewter-finished playing board, the fitted protective case, a Certificate of Authenticity and specially written reference materials.
