Drinking Horns, Mugs, and Goblets

Feasting gear is the easiest way into the Norse world and the rarest gift to be forgotten. Real polished horn, steel tankards and medieval goblets, with stands for the horns so they sit on a desk between toasts.

How to choose. Natural horns run roughly 12 to 20 ounces and no two share a curve or color; check each listing's capacity. Horn wants a hand rinse rather than a dishwasher, and a horn on a stand doubles as display. For Norse kits, pair one with a spectacle helm and a bearded axe; for gifts, a horn with a stand is the safe bet.
