Cronkhite Leather Horn Case for Screw Bell Horn – British Tan, Blemished "Second"
Genuine Cronkhite leather case for screw bell French horn in British Tan. This case is brand new but has a small cosmetic blemish on one of the upper panels, which is why it's offered at a discount. Normally priced from $495 and up, this particular piece was classified as a “second” by Torpedo Bags, though the blemish is subtle — you likely wouldn’t notice it unless it was pointed out.
This is a beautiful and highly functional case, combining handcrafted leatherwork with thoughtful ergonomic design. The shoulder straps are sewn in at the top (not removable), a feature unique to Cronkhite that makes them far more comfortable than traditional D-ring strap systems — especially when worn with lighter clothing.
Ideal for professionals and serious students alike, this case balances elegance, protection, and comfort, and is ready to ship immediately.
Why do some players prefer sewn-in leather straps over removable ones with D-rings?
Straps sewn directly into the case help distribute weight more evenly across the shoulders and avoid pressure points caused by metal hardware — especially helpful during long walks or travel.
