Relic Medieval Horn

Description

This Relic Handcarved medieval horn is made from ethically sourced ox horn and shaped by hand into a striking, carved drinking vessel. It has a capacity of 250-300 ml approximately , which might vary with the horn’s shape. Horn was widely used in medieval and Viking times because it was strong, lightweight and easily available for daily life, feasts and ceremonies. It has a capacity of about 8.5-10.1 ounces . 

The surface has deep, hand-carved patterns that give the horn an aged, relic-style look. These carvings are inspired by early medieval artistry, where drinking horns were often decorated to show status, skill, or cultural identity. Each horn is polished to a smooth finish, making it comfortable to hold while still preserving its rugged, historical look.

As a natural material, every horn has its own unique colour tones and grains, therefore no two pieces are ever the same. This Norse drinking horn connects directly to the past, echoing the use of the drinking horn viking warriors carried during feasts and rituals.

The Relic Handcarved medieval horn is suitable for cold or room-temperature beverages such as mead, ale, or ceremonial drinks. Hot liquids should be avoided, as heat may damage or warp the horn. It works equally well as a functional drinking vessel or as a decorative display piece.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

• Hand wash only with cold or lukewarm water

• Do not use dishwashers or soaking

• Avoid hot drinks and direct heat

• Dry properly after cleaning

• Occasionally apply a food-safe oil to maintain the horn’s finish

Note: This horn is made from real ox horn and carved by hand. Natural variations in color, thickness, and pattern are expected.
