Questions about the product Horn cup with wooden base & carving

What type of wood is the base of this handmade horn cup made of, and is the product dishwasher safe?

The base of this handcrafted horn mug is made of pine wood. The product is not suitable for dishwasher cleaning, as this can cause stress cracks; instead, it should be cleaned by hand with warm water, a little dish soap, and a brush.
What material are the horns used for manufacturing made from, and what is the best way to clean horn cups to avoid cracks or unpleasant odors?

The horns used in the production of these cups come from various cattle breeds or water buffalo, with the horn being a natural byproduct of meat production. To clean them, the cups should be rinsed immediately after use with lukewarm water, a small amount of mild dish soap, and a soft brush, then dried thoroughly. To prevent cracking, the material should not be placed in the dishwasher or soaked in moisture for extended periods. Occasional treatment with a neutral vegetable oil is also recommended. To combat unpleasant odors, cleaning with denture cleaning tablets, allowing them to soak for about an hour, is recommended.
Are these horn cups also suitable for enjoying hot drinks or highly acidic juices, and what kind of sealant protects the inside of the cup from food damage?

No, the horn cups are not suitable for hot drinks (over 60 degrees Celsius) or highly acidic drinks, as these can damage the seal and deform the natural material. The inside is usually protected with a food-safe clear varnish or beeswax.
What different designs are available for carving this horn cup, and why is each piece considered a unique, one-of-a-kind item in terms of its color and shape?

Available motifs include Mjölnir (Thor's Hammer), Valknut, dragons, Fenrir, and Sleipnir. Since horn is a natural product, individual grain patterns and natural variations in shape and color, ranging from black to ivory tones, ensure that each handcrafted piece remains a unique work of art.
