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 Viking Age horn fragments are rarely recovered in archaeological excavations, the number of surviving metal horn fittings suggests that their use was much more widespread than actual horn finds indicate.

Made from buffalo horn, and used as a drinking vessel in many cultures through different time periods, the drinking horn held great significance, especially for ceremonies. It continued to be used until the early modern period, especially throughout Germanic Europe.
The drinking horn we offer here is handmade from cattle horn, polished and embellished with an engraved motif of Yggdrasil, the world tree or tree of life. In Norse mythology, the evergreen ash Yggdrasil is the axis of the world connecting the heavens, the earth, and the underworld. As the embodiment of the entire cosmos or all of creation, this sacred tree symbolizes knowledge, life, decay, renewal, and ultimately immortality.
Whether in a modern home or to recreate a medieval or Viking setting, this rustic and highly decorative drinking vessel will be an eye-catcher on any dining table.
For hygienic reasons the horn is sealed on the inside with a food-safe varnish so you can enjoy your favorite ale (or mead) to the fullest.
