The horn surface areas are round w/a gradual tapering, great for shaping rings, wire wrapping & metal forming. A 2.25" diameter base for balance. Not design, but could be screw mounted to a bench or counter top for added stability. Especially useful in jewelry manufacturing, repair & other applications involving small or fine pieces.

Also, making wire earrings, pendants, necklaces or when hammering light weight gold, gold filled, silver, copper & brass metal sheet or other sheet metal into shape, this will come in handy! When hammering soft wire, texturing metal or sheet against a smooth, solid, surface it is necessary in order to "harden" the material so that it will retain its finished shape.
