Experience a traditional guksi cup handcrafted from durable acacia wood with a natural finish and leather cord, perfect for medieval feasts or outdoor use.
Crafted like northern drinking vessels, this guksi cup is a finely handmade piece carved from strong and durable acacia hardwood. Known for its toughness and beautiful grain pattern, acacia makes this Wooden cup quite hard-wearing, long-lasting and perfectly suited for daily use at camps and feasts.
The guksi, also known as a kuksa cup, comes from the ancient Nordic and Sámi cultures, where it was a personal drinking vessel carried on the belt during travels and hunts. Much like classic Medieval cups, it was known for its practicality, natural wood and the fact that it could be used to sip anything, from warm stews to fresh spring water, without altering the taste.
The cup is made from natural, unpolished finish so the wood remains food-safe and does not affect the flavor of your beverages. Its smooth interior is shaped from a single acacia wood, for strength and a seamless contour.
Acacia wood has many benefits:
Genuine Leather Hanging Cord: A sturdy, genuine leather cord is threaded through the rear hole, so that the cup hangs securely from a belt, backpack, or kitchen hook. This shows how travellers historically carried their handmade kuksa on journeys.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
