Horn Tankard - Odin Riding Sleipnir

Enjoy Horn Mug - Odin Riding Sleipnir

Large mug/tanker made of real horn

Odin rides Sleipnir

This generously sized handled cup/tanker is handcrafted from cattle horn, polished and decorated with an engraved motif of Odin on his legendary eight-legged horse Sleipnir (also Sleipner ).

The design is based on an 8th-century picture stone found near Tjängvide on the Swedish island of Gotland, now housed in the State Historical Museum ( Statens Historiska Museum , Historiska Museet for short) in Stockholm. Although the motifs depicted on the Tjängvide picture stone still leave room for interpretation today, most experts usually identify the mounted warrior depicted in the upper right field of the stone as the Norse father of the gods seated on Sleipnir.

The rustic and highly decorative glass we offer here is ideal not only for recreational purposes but also for everyday use. Whether in a medieval setting or a modern home, it's sure to be an 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!
