| - A horga'hn is the symbol of fertility in the culture of the planet Risa. It is used extensively in Risian design, such as being used as door switch panels in Risian dwellings. (ENT episode: "Two Days and Two Nights") Possession of a carved horga'hn was to call forth its powers, and to display one publicly was meant to indicates that one was seeking jamaharon. Quark gave horga'hns to Jadzia Dax, Julian Bashir, and Leeta during their trip to Risa in 2373, keeping two for himself. (DS9 episode: "Let He Who Is Without Sin...")
- A stylized horga'hn was used as a door switch in several apartments on Risa in 2152. In addition, several cargo containers in the basement of the Risian nightclub were labeled with horga'hn symbols. (ENT: "Two Days and Two Nights") In 2366, Commander Riker asked Captain Picard to acquire a horga'hn for him while the captain vacationed on Risa. An employee spotted the item and got the wrong idea about Picard. Picard didn't know until afterward that Riker was setting him up to appear that he was seeking jamaharon. (TNG: "Captain's Holiday" )

(ENT episode: "Two Days and Two Nights") Possession of a carved horga'hn was to call forth its powers, and to display one publicly was meant to indicates that one was seeking jamaharon. Commander William Riker asked Captain Jean-Luc Picard to acquire a horga'hn for him when the captain visited Risa in 2366, apparently intending that the captain would unwittingly display it to the women at his resort. (TNG episode: "Captain's Holiday") Quark gave horga'hns to Jadzia Dax, Julian Bashir, and Leeta during their trip to Risa in 2373, keeping two for himself.

An employee spotted the item and got the wrong idea about Picard. Picard didn't know until afterward that Riker was setting him up to appear that he was seeking jamaharon. (TNG: "Captain's Holiday" ) In the false reality created by Barash, Captain Riker had a horga'hn in his quarters. (TNG: "Future Imperfect" ) In 2368, Commander Riker had a horga'hn in his quarters, alongside a memory-less Ro Laren. (TNG: "Conundrum" ) On the way to Risa, Quark gave Dax, Bashir, and Leeta each a horga'hn, but made a point of not giving one to Worf. Once there, he eagerly tested the practice by displaying two horga'hn to a pair of Risian females, explaining when asked if he sought jamaharon, "I seek whatever you've got." They replied with the traditional Risian greeting "All that is ours is yours", to which Quark replied, "I'll take it!" Worf later threw his horga'hn against a wall in anger, shattering it.
