About this ebook
This work is a concise history of The Worshipful Company of Horners. H.G. Rosedale wrote this historical work after the discovery of the "Old Book of the Worshipful Company of Horners," which was presumably missing for some 250 years. Rosedale has attempted to present as many details as possible without making the text wordy. The use of simple language makes it easy to understand for the readers.
Some of the known facts about The Worshipful Company of Horners state that the first historical connection to the company was documented in 1284, but the craft of the Horner dates from centuries before. In medieval societies, it was necessary to use the dumped horns of cattle and sheep to produce eating utensils, drinking horns, mugs, buttons, combs, boxes, powder horns, and shoehorns. The Bottlemakers, whose trade in leather bottles declined by glass bottles, joined the Horners in 1476. Several unfamiliar details are presented about the company in this work, which were discovered after conducting ample research for many years. This book proves to be of great interest to anyone curious about ancient craft.
