Fürst-Pless horn, hunting horn with green leather wrapping, mouthpiece on chain and carrying strap Metal, hunting horn, so-called Fürst-Pless horn, oval silver-coloured plaque on the bell inscribed "Fürst-Pless". Round coiled horn wrapped with green leather band, mouthpiece on a small chain, leather strap for carrying. Good condition commensurate with age, slight age patina. L. 36 cm Since 1880 the Fürst-Pless horn has borne the name of Hans Heinrich XI, Prince of Pless, Chief Master of the Hunt under the Emperors Wilhelm I and Wilhelm II. The hunting horn is a natural horn pitched in B flat with a tube length of about 130 cm, which is tightly coiled and conveniently carried on a strap. At driven hunts it serves as a signalling instrument for the hunt signals. To this day the Pless horn is part of hunting tradition and is played by hunting horn ensembles and at St Hubert's masses.
