Viking Drinking Horn - Odin's Ravens
Hand carving my Drinking Horns ensures that each horn slightly different from the next! The story on this horn is that of Odin's Ravens Thought & Memory:
“Huginn and Muninn
Fly every day
Over all the world;
I worry for Hugin
That he might not return,
But I worry more for Muninn.”
