What are these called?
I am looking for a source of metal accent items that can be attached to cutting boards or bowls for accent or perhaps unique handles. What I see in commercial products, these items have shapes of lobster, shrimp, cattle horns, etc--made out of metal like pewter. I have attached a picture of an example. As a class I don't know what they are called. Also looking for a source as well. They are not a typical drawer pull-much more than that.

I would look at a cabinet hardware place, something like that is used for a coat/hat rack. Rockler sells a lot of that stuff on there web site.

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

There are all kinds of decorative drawer pulls. Places like restoration hardware, crate & barrel, rockler, woodcraft, and many cabinet places will have a decent selection

I think they are "Longhorns".

I've seen similar ones as hood or grill ornaments, so you might try searching on longhorn hood ornament.

Re: What are these called?
Thank you. Do you happened know as a class what these accent elements are called? For example there is a class of items called Conchos that are used in leather making. Many different designs and styles. I am interested in wide range of styles for my woodworking, not just cattle. Things like shrimp, lobster, crabs for bowls and fish heads for flat serving boards for example.
