Abbeyhorn - Stand G74 - Home

Game Of Thrones or Vikings fan, or both?

Jon Snow or Ragnor Lothbrok?

Welcome to the world of Abbeyhorn; a small manufacturing business based in the little village of Holme, on the cusp of the Lake District.  Here, using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations, their artisans hand-make a fantastic range of unique gifts from Ankole Cow Horn and Red Deer Antler.

Back in June 2011, Abbeyhorn was approached by a small production company, who were just starting out, to provide Horn Mead Mugs and Cups as props for an upcoming production.  Little did Abbeyhorn know, this company was part of HBO, America’s premium cable and satellite TV network, which became the entity Fire and Blood Productions, who are the makers behind the epic series, Game Of Thrones.

A year later, Abbeyhorn was then approached by VK Productions, the makers of Vikings, to arrange a supply of horn and stag antler props, including drinking horns, mugs and cups. 

“The mugs and cups have always been popular products, but since Game Of Thrones and Vikings started they have taken off, and we now ship them all over the world” Marianne, Sales and Enquires Advisor, commented.

“Each mug is hand carved from Ankole Cow Horn, a by-product from Nigeria’s meat industry, and goes through 17 different stages in its production.  Because every cow horn is different, and we use traditional methods of manufacture, every mug is unique in both colour, size and shape” Paul, Abbeyhorn’s owner, explains.

Even though the final episodes of the cult series Game of Thrones have aired, fans are still debating over the long-awaited conclusion, this may go on for some time.  However, in the Viking camp, fans are on tenterhooks waiting for season 6 to arrive at the end of 2019, it is time to get prepared for the onslaught of fans desperate to get their hands on a horn mug (MCM) or cup (PCB), so they can enjoy their favourite tipple whilst glued to these epic episodes.

So why not pop along to stand G74 to see the horn mugs and cups for yourself and discover what it’s all about. Whilst you are there why not browse the fabulous range of gifts for all.  You will be surprised by what they can do with Cow Horn and Stag Antler!
