The Haas miniature horn is single-coiled, with a one-piece, solid silver body; the mouthpiece, garland and bell interior are gold-plated. Tassels of yellow, red, and green silk threads are fixed to the eyelets by leather bindings and held together by a wooden knob covered by threads of the same material and are woven in a zigzag-pattern.
