Viking Genuine Blowing Horn / Gjallarhorn with Intricate Lost-wax Cast Bronze Mouthpiece

This Viking Genuine Blowing Horn with Lost-Wax Cast Bronze Mouthpiece is a masterpiece of historical craftsmanship, merging the organic beauty of natural horn with the precision artistry of ancient bronze casting. The horn itself is hand polished, allowing its unique coloration to shine, ensuring no two are alike.

The mouthpiece of the Blowing Horn is created through the lost-wax casting method, a technique dating back thousands of years, allowing for exceptional detail in the intricate Norse knot-work. This traditional process involves sculpting the design in wax, encasing it in clay, melting out the wax, and pouring molten bronze into the cavity—capturing the design in stunning accuracy.

With its rich connection to Norse mythology, the Gjallarhorn was the Blowing Horn of Heimdall, whose sound would signal great events. Whether used in ceremonial gatherings, as a display piece, or for special occasions, this horn commands presence and authenticity.
