Product Details

Drinking horns were used from ancient to modern times as common drinking utensils. They are easy to obtain, cheap and last forever with a bit of care. We can source a variety of different sized drinking horns made from domesticated cattle horn. Our plain and decorated medium sized horns are our best selling products from the entire Lord of Battles range.

The Medium Drinking Horn is about 25 cm to 30 cm long and has a capacity of about 250 - 300 millilitres which is ideal for a can of beer. Note that the capacity on medium and larger sized horns vary quite a bit as these are natural products and are not all a uniform size. Hence the range of capacity on the medium sized horns.   

The horns have been boiled and cleaned thoroughly, waterproofed and then had food grade varmish applied on the inside. So you can drink out of them straight away although we recommend a quick rinse with warm water before you use them for the first time to remove any residue from the manufacturing process.

Each horn comes with either a hand forged bipod iron stand to allow it to be stood upright on a bench, table or on the ground.

Also cleaning your drinking horn with some form of natural oil occassionally will increase its life, Being a natural product the shape and colour will vary from item to item.
