Product description
Drinking horns were used by various peoples in Europe during celebrations, rituals and banquets. From the Germanic tribes to the Vikings and the Celtic peoples, the drinking horn was not only a practical drinking vessel, but also a status symbol. This drinking horn combines that age-old tradition with a striking decoration in the shape of a horse's head.
The horse played an important role in many European cultures. The Celts worshiped the horse goddess Epona as the protector of horses, travelers and warriors. Horses were also associated with status, strength and prosperity in the Germanic and Nordic world. The horse head on this drinking horn is therefore more than a decorative detail; it refers to an animal that played a central role in daily life, trade and warfare for centuries.
The horn is made of real ox horn and fitted with solid brass batter. Because every horn comes from a natural material, each copy has a unique shape, colour and drawing. No two drinking horns are exactly the same. This makes each horn a unique piece with its own character.
With a capacity of approximately 300 to 350 ml, this drinking horn is suitable for mead, beer, wine and other cold drinks with an alcohol content of up to 20%. The combination of polished horn and warm-colored brass provides an authentic appearance that is ideal for historical events, Viking festivals, reenactment camps and fantasy festivals.
This drinking horn comes with a pouch for safe transport and storage. To extend its lifespan, it is recommended to rinse the horn with cold or lukewarm water after use and to treat it regularly with beeswax. Because it is a natural product, small changes may occur in the surface over time. This is part of the character of real horn and makes every drinking horn even more unique.
