Generally made from cattle or goat horn, and used as a drinking vessel in many cultures across different time periods, the drinking horn held great importance, especially for ceremonies. It continued to see service into the early modern period, especially throughout Germanic Europe. A particularly popular drinking vessel during the Early Middle Ages in Scandinavia, it enjoyed mentions in both the Prose Edda and the Poetic Edda. Although horn fragments from the Viking Age are rarely recovered in archaeological excavations, the number of preserved metal horn fittings leads one to assume that its use was far more widespread than actual horn finds indicate.
The drinking horn offered here is handcrafted from cattle horn, polished and adorned with an engraved motif of Odin riding his legendary eight-legged horse Sleipnir (or Sleipner ). The design is based on the 8th-century stone that was found near Tjängvide on the island of Gotland, Sweden, and is now on display at the Swedish history museum ( Statens historiska museum , also known as Historiska museet ) in Stockholm. Although the motifs depicted on the Tjängvide image stone still leave room for interpretation to this day, the warrior on a steed featured on the right in the upper field of the stone is generally identified by most scholars as the Norse father of the gods sitting atop Sleipnir.
Whether in a modern home, or for recreation purposes in a medieval/Viking setting, this rustic and highly decorative drinking vessel will be a real eye-catcher on any dining table.
For hygiene reasons, the horn is sealed on the inside with a food-safe varnish so that you can enjoy your favorite beer (or mead) to the fullest.
A convenient and easy-to-carry drinking horn holder made of hand-forged steel is included in the scope of delivery. The principle is quite simple: simply insert the horn through the opening, and the two legs of the holder and the tip of the horn will form a stable tripod, thus ensuring that you can always place your drinking horn safely.
A great gift idea for modern Vikings!
