Raids were a characteristic of the Scandinavian early medieval pirates called the Vikings.  The Distressed Raider Viking Horn with Rack is polished on the inside.  The included stand is hand forged of iron with twists on the legs.  It's worth noting that raids similar to those conducted by the Vikings occurred in other parts of Europe during the Viking era. What made the Viking raids so notable was their success.  This horn looks a little like drift wood with beautiful distress marks that add character and genuineness.  Our Distressed Raider Viking Horn with Rack is the perfect accessory to a pirate costume to medieval renaissance festival attire. Horn Height: 13 - 15 Inches      Horn Width: 2.5 - 5  Inches      Stand Size: 6.25 x 7 Inches      Includes: Twisted Iron Hand Forged Stand *Please wash with a gentle detergent and polish with vegetable oil to keep it from drying out. And from time to time you will want to use beeswax to coat the inside to keep from cracking and the inside drying out.
