The Ridgeborn Horn Mug honours the wild strength of natural horn.

Its ridges are not carved decoration, they are nature’s own markings, shaped long before the craftsman’s hand. Dark, raw, and battle-worn in appearance, this mug feels made for feast halls, firelight, and those who prefer their drinkware with a story.

No two natural horns are ever the same. Yours carries its own colour, curve and character. With the right care, it can become more than a drinking vessel. It can become part of your story.

💧 Before the first feast

Gently wash your horn by hand using lukewarm water, mild dish soap and a soft cloth.

🫧 Clean after every use

Empty and rinse your horn promptly after drinking. Do not leave beverages sitting inside for extended periods.

🚫 Never soak or use the dishwasher

Never soak your horn or place it in the dishwasher. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges and vigorous scrubbing.

❄️ Keep it cold

Use only with cold alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. Do not use with hot liquids.

💨 Dry completely

Wipe your horn with a soft cloth, then allow it to air dry completely before storing. Never store it while damp.

🛡️ Protect the finish

Store it in a cool, dry place away from strong heat and prolonged direct sunlight. Do not apply oils, waxes or polishes unless Modern Viking recommends them for that specific product.

Care for it well, and your horn can remain ready for feasts across generations. More than a drinking vessel, it can become a piece of your story worth passing down.
