A Glimpse into History
Drinking horns were by no means exclusive to the Vikings. They served as drinking vessels for thousands of years across various cultures, from the Thracians and Scythians to the Celts and Germanic tribes. In many societies, they were not merely utensils but also ceremonial objects and status symbols, often richly decorated with precious metals. One of the most famous depictions of a drinking horn in action can be found on the famous Bayeux Tapestry, which portrays a feast before the Battle of Hastings in 1066.
How to Care for Your Horn to Ensure It Lasts
Natural horn is a durable yet specific material that requires proper care. To maintain its beauty and functionality for many years, please follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Always wash the horn by hand only, using lukewarm water and a soft cloth. Dry it carefully immediately after washing. Never place it in a dishwasher!
- Unsuitable Drinks: Do not fill the horn with hot beverages, as they could damage the horn's structure and the internal lacquer. Also, avoid strong spirits (with an alcohol content over 20%) and carbonated or highly acidic drinks (juices, sodas).
- Storage: Do not let liquids sit in the horn for extended periods. Always rinse it out after use and allow it to dry. Store it in a dry place, ideally in the provided cloth pouch.
