Handcrafted Viking Ox Horn Tankard with Vegvisir & Twin Dragon Engraving – 500–600ml Cold Drink Mug

Description

Raise your drinking horn in true Norse fashion with this handcrafted Viking tankard—an heirloom of strength, symbolism, and storytelling. Shaped from authentic ox horn and polished by hand, this mug captures the primal beauty of natural materials once common to Viking halls and longships. No two tankards are the same; each varies in shade, pattern, and curvature, echoing the individuality prized in Norse warrior culture.

At the center of the design is the Vegvisir, the ancient Icelandic stave believed to guide its bearer safely through storm, darkness, or uncertainty. Flanked by twin dragons, powerful emblems of defense and dominance in Norse mythology, the engraved motif transforms the tankard into a vessel of symbolic strength—more than just a drinking cup, it’s a personal talisman.

Polished on the inside for safety and comfort, it’s perfectly suited for mead, ale, cider, or any chilled beverage of your choice. Whether you’re drinking around a fire, preparing for a festival, or decorating your personal mead hall, this horn tankard brings the rich visual language of Viking culture into your hands. Its sturdy horn handle—shaped from the same single piece—ensures a natural grip, while the included canvas bag makes it easy to store or gift.

Tankards like this recall the celebratory rituals of Norse life—where battles were followed by brotherhood, toasts to ancestors, and the sharing of strong drink in honor of gods and kin. With every sip, you carry that legacy forward.
