Horn Mug with Wooden Base and Valknut Motif No. 2

Horn Mug with Wooden Base and Valknut Motif No. 2

This generously sized handled cup/tanker is handmade from horn, polished, and decorated with a carved Valknut symbol. In addition to the carving, this beautiful horn tankard has a wooden base. The Valknut, a symbol consisting of three intertwined triangles, appears in various archaeological finds attributed to the Germanic peoples. Although to this day one can only speculate about its true meaning, some experts tend to assume a connection to Odin, the father of the gods in Norse mythology (hence the alternative German name Wotan's knot). The Valknut has made its way into modern culture and adorns many pieces of jewelry, talismans, and decorative objects. It is particularly popular among followers of Germanic Neopaganism (for example, among followers of Ásatrú ).



Whether in a modern home or recreating a medieval or Viking setting, this rustic and highly decorative vessel will be a real eye-catcher on any dining table.



For hygiene reasons, the horn tankard is painted food-safe inside, so you can enjoy your favorite beverage to the fullest.


A great gift idea for today's Viking or Pagan!
