Chieftain Drinking Horn 16.9 fl oz
Epic Armoury's dark Chieftain Drinking Horn holds about 17 ounces of your favorite grog. Chosen specifically for its dark coloring, this genuine horn comes from the Indian water buffalo, polished on the outside and engraved with a criss-cross pattern. Inside, a lacquer coating treats the horn for food use and helps it last.
Drink cool or room-temperature liquids from it while staying in character — it's a natural fit for feasts and war meetings. Use it the way you would any cup, just remember to tip the point to the left or right as you drink so it doesn't spill, and rest it in a leather frog on your belt between sips. Look after it and your Chieftain Drinking Horn will last for years.
- Available in Dark Horn and Light Horn colors
