Drinking Horn Pics... Thanks BrewerBear!!

[CreamyGoodness]

Pics of some goof (ok its me). BrewerBear was kind enough to send me some cattle horns, and two of them were watertight enough to clean out, coat with parafin, and use for mead drinking during Game of Thrones night. Thanks again BrewerBear and sorry for the delay as far as pics were concerned.

F*** yeah.

Great, now I want one. Like I need more drinking vessels....

 

[BrewerBear]

One of these days I need to watch an episode of Game of Thrones. Glad I could help

No carving/etching on those horns?
Regards, GF.

Get thee to a craftsman and have a traditional laser etching put upon them forthwith!

Ah, yes, laser etching. Just like the vikings lasered their drinking horns in the days of yore. Simpler times...

I was thinking scrimshaw, similar to these:

Maybe not quite as fancy though. They're Creamy's horns, he can do what he likes with it. Sometimes less is more.
Regards, GF.

So.... Creamy is going to scrimshaw Okra designs into it?

I'd love to see Creamy sample an okra mead out of that...

 

[gratus fermentatio]

Secretly, all vikings LOVE okra.

 

[Yooper]

I love it!

You know what I think is the best part? You can't set those drinking vessels down, and must hold them and drink them until they are gone. That means more mead. I like that.

True! I've seen horn stands, though. I'm betting Creamy has already thought about what style he is going to make...

Poor Creamy will never live down the Okra mead experiment. I think someone needs to re-ressurect that thread again.

I have also seen leather loops for your belt to hold them.

 

[Homercidal]

Hmm... I wonder if this is where the term "horny" came from.

Drinking horn ...

I was thinking the same thing.
