Is this branch wood or horn wood?

I ordered a small piece of branch wood from adana-usa.com, and this is what I was sent. Looking at the pictures on their website, it seems more like horn wood to me. What do you think?

Very interesting shape, no matter what it is called.

Definitely not "branch wood" - so if you don't like it or there's a cost difference, definitely reach out to customer service.

That said - it looks like a great piece of wood and could make for a killer aquascape in a small tank.

So I contacted adana-usa.com about the horn wood that they sent me instead of branch wood, and they not only sent me this beauty, but also let me keep the horn wood free of charge!
