Thank
you
all for your incredible
patience! We are now making Drinking Horns
again and shall post them as they are
completed. 3
Triskelions
It is a sweet little 13" long Horn, ranging from black to white, which
holds about 12 ounces of fluid.
It has a Sterling Silver Rim with 3 Megalithic Triskelions on it as
well
as a knot work pattern edging it. This Horn terminates into a Cat Head. A
Ring
on the Rim and the Tip
attach a removable 30" long hand-woven Chain. All metal parts are
Sterling Silver. The Horn is cleaned on the inside and ready for
drinking.
This horn runs $585.
We now also make some small-sized
Drinking Horns.
They all feature a Sterling Silver Rim with a Knotwork pattern (about
1/4" wide).
The Horns are mostly black, cleaned on the inside
and ready for drinking out of. The pictures below are sample pictures and may only resemble
the actual Horn.
Currently
available:
Black Horn, 8 1/2" long ... $75
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. You can also
choose the Horn size as well as pick from various Horn Finals. The
number of bands around the Middle of the Horn can also vary. Some Horns
additionally feature a Leather carrying strap or a belt loop.
The pictures
on this page are of sample Horns already sold.
They are meant
as a guide for your imagination ...
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.
Here are your choices of Horn Terminals:
Wolf (top left), the Raven (bottom left), the Lion
(top right) and the large Eagle (bottom right).
Each of them may grip an optional Ring for suspension of a strap.
In this case, the Horn Rim must also include a Ring to complete the
suspension.
Our
Horns come in 2 basic sizes: about 12" long and about 20" long.
Occasionally, there are also small Horns available for stronger
beverages.
On rare occasions, is it possible to receive a
matching pair of Horns.
And on special request, we can get LARGE Horns.
