Description
Channeling the traditions of Norse longhouses and seafaring warriors, this handcrafted Viking drinking horn brings the ancient world back into your grasp. Made from a single piece of ox horn, each tankard is individually shaped, sanded, and polished—ensuring no two pieces are ever the same. Its naturally curved form and striated surface make it as much a relic as a vessel.
In Viking-age feasts, horns like this were symbols of loyalty, status, and the sacred bond between host and guest. Used to drink to victories, gods, and fallen kin, they carried deep ceremonial weight. Today, this 400 ml horn recaptures that essence—ideal for sipping cold mead, ale, or cider at festivals, reenactments, or simply in your own hall.
The horn’s interior is carefully polished to a food-safe finish, while the outer surface retains its raw beauty with a high-gloss touch. Lightweight yet strong, it can be displayed on a wooden stand, carried on a belt using a leather sling (available separately), or offered as a bold, meaningful gift. Choose it plain or with engravings of Norse symbols like ravens, wolves, or the protective Vegvísir to reflect your personal saga.
This horn is more than a cup—it’s a vessel of heritage, celebration, and identity. From collectors and historical enthusiasts to fantasy fans and ceremonial drinkers, it speaks to anyone who raises their glass in honor of ancient ways.
