Questions about the product Vegvísir Drinking Horn with Stand (200-300ml)

What material is the Vegvísir drinking horn made of, and what is the best way to clean it to protect the engraving?

The Vegvísir drinking horn is made of genuine cow horn (natural horn) and features an iron stand.

For gentle cleaning and care of the engraving, please observe the following instructions: - Rinse the horn immediately after use with lukewarm water and, if necessary, a very small amount of mild dish soap.

- Use a soft bottle brush for the inside, but avoid harsh tools such as wire brushes to prevent damage to the seal and engraving.

- Dry the horn with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry completely with the opening facing down.

- Never clean the horn in the dishwasher and avoid soaking it in water or contact with hot or highly acidic beverages.

- To keep the surface smooth, the outside of the horn can occasionally be rubbed with a little vegetable oil.
Which liquids should not be put into the Vegvísir drinking horn, and what should be taken into account when storing it to avoid material damage?

Hot or highly acidic drinks such as lemon juice or carbonated soft drinks should not be poured into the Vegvísir drinking horn, as these can damage the lacquer finish and the natural material. To prevent damage, the horn should not be cleaned in the dishwasher, soaked, or stored in a dry place, ideally drying upside down after use. Direct sunlight should also be avoided to prevent cracking of the horn.
What is the meaning of the engraved Vegvísir symbol on the drinking horn, and is the included stand suitable for permanent display?

The Vegvisir (Icelandic for "wayfinder") is a magical symbol believed to protect the wearer from storms and ensure they don't get lost in bad weather. Contrary to popular belief, it is not historically documented in the Viking Age, but rather originates from 19th-century Icelandic manuscripts. The stand included in the set allows for a stable and decorative display of the horn.
What is the maximum permissible alcohol concentration for use in the Vegvísir drinking horn, and why should it be turned upside down to dry after use?

For use in the Vegvísir drinking horn, a maximum alcohol concentration of up to 20% is permitted. After use, the horn should be placed upside down to dry in order to prevent stress cracks between the base and the rim and to ensure that no residual moisture remains in the horn.
