Natural Viking medieval polished Buffalo Horn Mug, Ox Horn Mug with wood base/bottom measuring approximately 8-1/4 inches tall, measured from the base of the mug to the top of rim opposite the handle. review photos.  This natural buffalo/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.
