Historical Insight and the Symbolism of the Spiral

While drinking horns are inextricably linked with the Vikings, their history is much older and richer. They were used throughout Europe, especially among the Celtic tribes, for whom they held deep ritualistic significance. The spiral motif you see on this horn was a dominant theme in Celtic art. The spiral is one of humanity's oldest symbols, representing the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, the journey of the sun across the sky, or spiritual growth. By holding this horn, you are touching not only history but also deep, ancient symbolism.

How to Care for Your Horn for a Lifetime of Use

Natural horn is a beautiful but specific material that requires proper care to last forever. Please follow these tips:

• Washing: Always hand-wash the horn only. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth, and never put it in a dishwasher. Dry it thoroughly immediately after washing.
• Unsuitable Drinks: Do not fill the horn with hot beverages, as the high temperature could permanently damage the material. Also, avoid strong spirits (with an alcohol content over 20%) and carbonated or highly acidic drinks.
• Special Care: To extend the life and beauty of the horn, you can treat it with a thin layer of beeswax after each use and drying.
• Please Note: This is a natural material that may react to changes in temperature and humidity over time, potentially developing minor cracks. This is a natural characteristic of the material.
