These handcrafted horn picks are designed specifically for use by tambura players. Horn picks are premium, natural plectrums crafted from materials like buffalo or cattle horn, favored for their warm tone, durability, and excellent grip, acting as an ethical, keratin-based alternative to banned tortoiseshell. They offer a smooth, resonant sound, often with unique, varied colors, and are available in various lengths. Often described as providing more depth and warmth compared to plastic picks. They are known to hold well between fingers due to their organic composition and can be highly polished for a smooth release from strings. Due to the natural material, colors can range from translucent to opaque black, brown, and amber. The material provides a warm, organic, and mellow tone with a smooth attack, different from most plastic picks.
