Due to the unique and personal nature of Drinking Horns, each one is individually designed and hand-crafted. Here you can find a detailed description of how to start designing your own personal Drinking Horn. Consider the width, the decorations and the style of the Horn Rim. The number of bands around the Middle of the Horn can also vary. You can also pick from various Horn Finals. Some Horns additionally feature a leather carrying strap or a belt loop. And of course, the Horn themselves vary quite a bit in size and color. Please inquire for details of current selections.

Above you may view the Rim (left), the Band (center) and the Tip (right) of the Horn featured at the top of this page.
These are the 3 main components, which make up a Horn.

The Rim of the Horn can be designed by using multiple metals (Silver & Bronze) and components. The Horn featured above has a 2" wide Sterling Silver Rim with a Half-Round Lip, hand-stamped lower borderline and applied components in Bronze & Silver. The Band is 1 1/4" wide Sterling Silver with Bronze half-round Beading and Sterling Silver components. The Tip is our large Eagle Head Terminal. It is shown with an optional Ring. A Leather Strap is mounted onto the Ring (see top photo for complete view). The Leather Shoulder Strap (optional) comes with your choice of Period Studs, Buckles and Strap Ends.
(Please see our Buckles, Strap Ends & Mounts page.)

The above pictured Horn Rims employ stamp work in their design. This method allows for application of your individual line art.

An optional Band may also be designed to match the motive of your personalized Horn Rim.
