Default Making a lamp out of horns?

I have seen the lamps and lights in magazines that have like the base of the lamps made out of horns. I was just wondering if anyone has done this? I have always wanted to but havent tryed. If anyone has and can post pics that would be great. Thanks!

I am in the process of trying to make one. Don't know how it will turn out. Mine will be all antlers for the bottom part. Going to drill hole thru one of them to run the cord thru & the light will come out one of the bases. It is pretty hard to put some antlers together & make a solid base that you like. I finally got 3 antlers put together how I liked them. Just have black tape holding them together now. That is as far as I have gotten. Next step is to drill them where they make contact & try & pin them together. A buddy of mine has made a couple & they look great.
