Custom order for Iain.
Every night at 9 o'clock, all year round, the Ripon Hornblower still 'sets the night watch' at the four corners of the obelisk in the Market Square: a proud City tradition.
Iain asked for me to make a Ripon Hornblower, an ancient tradition in our tiny city in which the hornblower blows his horn every night at 9pm.
I made his little horn with clay but I have seen some brilliant metal miniature instruments that I'd like to try some time.
Iain loved his hornblower, it's his favourite doll so far and he took it to meet the current hornblower on the market square.
