Description
This drinking horn is fashioned from a carefully chosen animal horn, shaped and polished by hand to create a durable vessel. The exterior bears carved dragon scales and deep etched lines, reflecting the bold designs found in Norse and medieval art, where dragons were seen as guardians and symbols of strength. The horn is fitted with an adjustable black suede belt holster, allowing it to be carried securely during feasts or journeys. As with all traditional drinking horns, it should be hand washed gently to maintain its natural finish. A simple jute bag accompanies the horn for storage, using materials reminiscent of those common in Viking and medieval daily life.
- Overall: Approximately 11″ tall with a 3″ opening
- Capacity: Approximately 14 oz.
Please Note: Each horn is a natural product, so size and coloration may vary. It is recommended to wash the horn thoroughly before first use to remove any residual oils or impurities.
Fun Fact: Some drinking horns were shaped and decorated to resemble dragons not only for their fierce appearance but because the dragon was believed to protect the drinker from evil spirits during rituals and celebrations.
