Viking Drinking Horn Tankard 15-20 oz Ox Horn Beer Mug Gift Set

I ordered this cup so that I’d have a period piece to use at a LARP I go to. It arrived well packaged and in great condition. First thing I did was to test it for leaks as some buyers have mentioned. No leak at all. The cup is very lightweight, and the natural horn is a beautiful mix of dark and light colors. It does have a slight livestock scent but that is to be expected as it is real horn. This should go away after a while. I wouldn’t use the cup for at least a week after opening it. Let it air, and then wash throughly a few times. I love that the handle is open so you can hook it on a belt. Also, this thing is large, a true tankard. It is an extremely handsome piece. I purchased mine with fulfillment by Amazon so the quality is great so far. I have yet to use it but will update this review should anything change. You can’t use this drinking horn for a hot drink as I’d hoped, but it seems absolutely perfect for mead, ale or, water. The grip isn’t the most comfortable, especially when filled with liquid, but this is a Viking drinking horn, Vikings wouldn’t care and neither should you. My girlfriend and my LARP buddy were impressed by this drinking horn. Can’t wait for the reactions at the LARP.

This item was purchased as a gift for a friend and it was perfect! It is easy to use and clean. It was a great way to honor his Viking ancestry and it is so fun. It works great and with all three items is was a great value too.

Such a great product and great customer service. I bought this as a birthday present for my boyfriend who is a game of thrones fan and he loved it! It does smell funky but that is just because it is actual horn, not plastic. Totally worth it in my opinion, plus the smell dies down after a couple times use. And the customer service is amazing. I believe it was a month later I contacted them because my boyfriend had offhandedly told me it was leaking. He then realized it had a crack and I sent them a photo and let them know. They then sent me a new one in no time and I was able to keep the old one. So now we have two great cups, though the one with the crack is more decorative or we just drink out of it quickly haha.

Very very disappointed. It's beautiful, but my husband only had 3 beers out of his on separate occasions and it started to leak out of the bottom. The natural horn texture is beautiful and I didn't notice a smell like other users mentioned. I thought it would be a bit heavier, but it is not really much heavier than a wine glass, so it seems to be for the more relaxed droning type, which he is, so if you like to drink and are more excitable you might not want this horn. We're really bummed out that it stated leaking after only 3 uses given how expensive it was ($50 after taxes) and how cheap it feels in general. I don't know, I was just expecting something a bit sturdier and more Viking-like. You picture a bunch of burly hairy warriors around the fire in a long house with swords and all that. This thing would get crushed to smithereens in like 5 seconds there. It didn't even last through 3 IPAs and a couple hand washes with organic dish soap by a middle aged dude in pajama pants hanging out in a recliner. Sending it back for a refund.

This is not an ordinary beer mug, and that is exactly the appeal. It is hand carved from genuine ox horn, so the color, grain, and shape naturally vary from one piece to another. That makes it feel more personal as a gift than mass-produced novelty barware. The listed capacity is roughly 15 to 20 ounces, with a food-safe lacquered interior and a metal rim. It also comes with a burlap storage bag and stainless bottle opener, which makes the presentation feel complete for a birthday, groomsman gift, themed party, or Renaissance fair. The horn is intended for cold drinks such as mead, ale, beer, whiskey, cider, or water. The important limitation is care: this is hand-wash only, so it should not be treated like a dishwasher-safe glass mug, and the coating deserves gentle cleaning and thorough drying. The natural material and included extras make it distinctive, but the extra upkeep keeps it at four stars.

I bought this for my husband. He love it and so did everyone at the birthday party! I definitely would order this again!

Beautifully crafted cup, and my husband loved it

This thing is beautiful and a great novelty in that no one has one and it peaks everyone’s interest. Great form, gloss, and finish. Only thing to say about it is that it initially smells like a farm animal, because it came from a farm animal. I smelled the inside and almost polluted my britches in disgust. I turned to the product description to see what was going on but it wasn’t mentioned, so I had to do some research to see what was going and it is completely normal. I had to soak mine in like warm water with soap, DO NOT USE HOT WATER. If you use hot water you can and will deform the cup, heat is what allowed the maker to manipulate the horn and this is about as an organic of a material you can get! After 4 good 48 hour long soaks the smell has gone away and a joy t drink out of!

I just received the mug, no burlap sac, nor the extras that it was supposed to come with...the base looks made out of plastic, not wood as stated by the manufacturer Very disappointed with this purchase!

Uma pena que não veio na cor do mostruário (que aparece na propaganda) a minha veio toda preta.

Not worth the price Didn't get the sack or cup/hanger
