Natural Viking medieval polished buffalo horn mug, ox horn mug with wood base/bottom measuring approximately 6-1/2 inches tall, measured from the base of the mug to the top of rim opposite the handle. review photos.  This natural buffalo horn, ox horn mug is made using traditional methods which make an excellent re-enactment piece. The exterior has been hand polished and includes a horn handle. These mugs make a beautiful display item and while they hold liquid, we do not recommend drinking from them. The item will have a slight odor and may have minor scratches due to buffing and the natural material used. The variations in shape and color can only be made by nature; thus a horn may have natural blemishes which will not affect its use, but does verify its authenticity.
