The next time you have a drink, do it in style with the Norse Firedrake Drinking Horn. Emerging from the Viking Age in Scandinavia in the 7th century, the horn was used for ceremonial purposes as well as festive functions throughout the generations. As a drinking vessel worldwide, this horn will cater to any beverage you choose, be it boiling hot or ice cold. This is a truly unique piece hand crafted from 100% cow horn with a polished exterior and highlighted by a hand carved firedrake. The firedrake is known as one of the fiercest dragons in literature and mythology. It comes complete with a forged and twisted iron stand for convenient holding. Great for period parties and re-enactments.
Following 5 steps are being generally followed during the manufacturing process of drinking horns:
a) Selecting an appropriate horn.
b) Sanding the horn from the outside.
c) Washing with hot water.
d) Coating with glass coat lacquer from the inside to make it 100% safe for usage.
e) Polishing.
All horns are boiling water proof and are polished to give a smooth finish.
* Please note there may be a slight odor as this is a natural item. The color and shape may vary and may not be exactly like the picture. Item may have minor scratches due to buffing and natural material. When measuring this item we measure it at the spine. This is an all-natural item and you will need to coat inside with beeswax. In order to do this you will melt the beeswax and pour it in the horn. Coat the inside evenly and pour out the excess wax. Please wash with a gentle detergent before coating the inside and polish with vegetable oil to keep it from drying out. And from time to time you will want to use beeswax to coat the inside to keep from cracking. Please do not use hot liquids in this item. The variations in their shapes and colors can only be made by nature; thus a horn may have natural blemishes which will not affect its functionality but does verify its authenticity.

Material: Cow Horn
Design: Dragon
