Final carve for 2024
At Modern Viking, we take immense pride in our craftsmanship ⚔️. Every piece we create is forged with passion, and to make each item as perfect as possible, we need time. ⏳ Our Final Carve represents the last carvings we will craft for 2024.

Any horn marked "Last Carve for 2024" is the only stock available for Christmas and the holiday season. Once these treasures are claimed, they’re gone for 2024! ⚒️ We will return to our craft in the new year, so don’t miss your chance to own one of these legendary pieces before they disappear into the mists of time.
🛡️ If, by Odin’s will, we are unable to fulfill your order, we will contact you directly via phone and email. Please make sure to leave a contact number if you wish to be reached by phone, so we can swiftly communicate and discuss the best course of action. ⚔️ We’re committed to ensuring your Viking treasures reach you, no matter the challenge!

Your Viking treasures will arrive in time to make this holiday season one for the sagas! ⚔️✨

We take absoutle pride and care on every single item we make, the process of doing this is extremeley extensive, any item on pre order, like drinking horns have a huge process for us to get them looking shiny and perfect as they do. We start with getting the raw material, then this needs to be treated for almost a week, then recleanned, then after that we find the perfect horns for the perfect carving, after this process every horn is hand carved, yes by hand, then after this is done over a few days, the horn needs to be washed again, then we put a colour throught the carving of the horn, this needs a few days to dry enough so we can polish it, after the paint has dried we remove the excuss paint, after this the horn is then food safe sealed 6 times over, meaning each time we do it on a nice hot sunny day needs atleast two days to dry, after the food sealent is all dried we polish the horn to make it nice and shiny, one last wash is given, we test it for leaks from the carving or anywhere else, once this is all complete we prepare it for packging. This is just a very quick run down of our process, and we hope you can appreciate the time and effort we put in to make your item as amazing as it is for an extremely resonable price, our items just not a gift it is a journey and a talking piece that should be cherished and respected for the fine item it is.
Final carve for 2022 means that after the next batch of stock we will not be carving anymore until 2023, our horns take over 2 months to treat, prep,carve,polish and pack so therefore we are preparing now 29/08 for the horns to be in stock by 10/10 at the latest ready for christmas, so everyone can have a chance to get something speical for the people they love.
