Description
This Viking drinking horn, inspired by the legendary Ragnar, is shaped entirely by hand from a genuine animal horn, a skill honed over centuries by northern smiths and craftsmen. The horn is fitted with a sturdy leather belt holster, designed to be worn at your side much like the warriors of old who carried their drinking horns into battle and feast alike. It reflects the material culture of the Viking Age, bringing a tangible connection to that rugged, storied world. To display your horn when not in use, a twisted iron horn stand can be used to hold it upright and ready for the next toast. Because it is made from natural horn, hand washing is recommended to maintain its finish and durability.
Please Note: Each horn is shaped by the animal it came from, so size and coloration will differ naturally. Before drinking, it is wise to rinse the horn thoroughly to clean it and prepare it for use.
- Overall length: Approximately 14″
- Capacity: Approximately 12 oz
A fun fact: In Viking tradition, spilling mead from a drinking horn was seen as an ill omen, for the gods were believed to watch over the drinking rituals. A horn like Ragnar’s would have been a prized vessel, carried proudly at feasts and ceremonies in the great halls.
