TO BE ANNOUNCED FOR 2024
🛡️ By the hammer of Thor, we guarantee that all Christmas pre-orders will arrive in time for your festive feasts 🎄🍻—unless the gods themselves intervene! ⚡ If any unforeseen delays arise, we will send a raven (or more likely, a message 📩) to you directly, giving you ample time to choose another item or discuss alternative options. Rest assured, we’ll make sure you’re well-prepared for your Yuletide celebrations with the finest Viking treasures 🗡️✨ in hand!
At Modern Viking, we hold ourselves to the highest standards, crafting each item with the same care as a Viking blacksmith forging his finest sword ⚔️. We refuse to send anything that isn’t worthy of the gods themselves! 💪✨ In the rare event that your treasure is delayed or damaged during its epic voyage 🛶📦—especially during the busy Christmas season 🎄—fear not! We’ll swiftly send a replacement, as quick as a Viking warrior drawing his axe in battle. 🗡️ Rest assured, your legendary items will arrive ready for you to feast and celebrate!
🛡️ At Modern Viking, we stand by the quality of our goods, but if for any reason you need to return your item, we’ll accept all returns until January 5th. Please note, if you’ve had a change of heart—perhaps the winds shifted in a different direction—the buyer will cover the cost of return postage. Just as a Viking takes responsibility for his choices, so too will you for the return of your treasure! ⚔️📦
Afterpay
⚔️ We’ve been in the forge, working hard with Shopify and Afterpay to resolve this issue! While Afterpay doesn’t allow cross-country transactions for now, we’ve come up with a battle-ready solution! 💪 If you check out in AUD, Afterpay will appear as a payment option for our fellow Vikings in America and New Zealand. 🌏🛡️ So worry not, your treasure can still be claimed swiftly and easily!

We want to ensure your epic haul is tracked across the seas and lands, so you’ll know exactly when your legendary items will arrive at your doorstep! 🌏📦
Final carve for 2024
At Modern Viking, we take immense pride in our craftsmanship ⚔️. Every piece we create is forged with passion, and to make each item as perfect as possible, we need time. ⏳ Our Final Carve represents the last carvings we will craft for 2024. Some of our prized horns take over two months to treat, carve, seal with food-safe coatings, dry, and polish to a gleaming finish worthy of the gods. 🛡️
Any horn marked "Last Carve for 2024" is the only stock available for Christmas and the holiday season. Once these treasures are claimed, they’re gone for 2024! ⚒️ We will return to our craft in the new year, so don’t miss your chance to own one of these legendary pieces before they disappear into the mists of time.
🛡️ If, by Odin’s will, we are unable to fulfill your order, we will contact you directly via phone and email. Please make sure to leave a contact number if you wish to be reached by phone, so we can swiftly communicate and discuss the best course of action. ⚔️ We’re committed to ensuring your Viking treasures reach you, no matter the challenge!

⚔️ Important Care Tips for Your Horn/Mug 🛡️
- Do not put it in the dishwasher 🚫🍽️
- Do not use harsh chemicals like bleach ❌🧴
- Do not use hard bristle brushes to clean your horn ⚠️🧹
- Do not put it in the microwave ⚡🚫
When in doubt, feel free to reach out! Email us at support@modernviking.com.au and we’ll be happy to help. 📨✨ Keep your horn in legendary condition! 🏺🔥
⚔️ All of our horns are crafted from a single piece, including both the horn and the stand. 🌿 Since each horn is a natural product, we carefully match the best stand with the best horn to create the perfect look. 🏺✨ This ensures every piece is as unique and striking as a true Viking treasure! 🔥⚔️
⚔️ All of our horns are natural products and ethically sourced. 🌿 As they are shaped by nature, we have no control over the shape or color—altering them would ruin the authenticity of the product. 🛡️ Each horn is truly one-of-a-kind, with its own unique shape and color, making it as special as the Viking who wields it! 🏺✨
⚔️ All of our horns and mugs are hand-carved with care and craftsmanship. 🛠️ In some cases, there may be slight differences in the design, which can happen due to human touch or the unique shape of each horn. 🌿 We often have to improvise to ensure the best result, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind. 🏺✨ This adds to the charm and authenticity of your handcrafted Viking treasure! ⚔️🔥
⚔️ If you're looking for a matching pair of horns, we’ll go above and beyond to provide you with two that are as close in height and color as possible. However, because each horn is shaped by nature, they won’t be perfectly identical. 🌿 This uniqueness is what makes each one a true Viking treasure! Whether you're sharing a drink or showcasing them, their slight differences tell a story of their own—no two are ever the same, just like the warriors who wield them. 🍻🏺✨
⚔️ Every horn and mug is food-safe sealed, cleaned, and ready for use. 🛡️ However, if you notice an odor, follow these steps to eliminate it:
- Give the horn a thorough wash with warm, soapy water. 🧼
- Rinse it well and dry it with a towel.
- If the smell persists, try soaking the horn in a mixture of water and white vinegar for a few hours, then wash and dry it again. 🌿
- You can also rub the inside with a small amount of lemon juice to neutralize any remaining odors. 🍋
If you’ve tried these steps and the issue persists, please reach out to us at support@modernviking.com.au and we’ll assist you further. We want you to enjoy your Viking horn to the fullest! 🍻🏺✨
Pre-orders
⚔️ At Modern Viking, we take great pride in delivering the finest craftsmanship anywhere in the world. 🛡️ All of our items are handmade, handcrafted, and hand-treated, requiring extensive labor and time to ensure each piece is a true work of art. Because every item is crafted by human hands, slight variations and occasional delays can occur, which is part of what makes each piece so special. 🌿
For pre-ordered items, the completion time depends on the item itself and can range from two weeks up to two months. While we strive to give an accurate time frame, please understand that crafting high-quality, unique pieces takes time. We appreciate your patience as we create your one-of-a-kind Viking treasure! ⚒️🏺✨
⚔️ As a small, family-owned business, we work tirelessly around the clock to ensure your items are crafted and shipped in a reasonable time. 🛡️ From the date of pre-order, your item may experience a delay of 4 to 15 days, depending on the circumstances. Rest assured, we will notify you via email as soon as your item is ready, packed, and shipped. 📦 We deeply appreciate your patience and support as we craft your Viking treasures with care and dedication! 🏺✨
⚔️ We understand that many of our items are bought as incredible gifts or perfect birthday presents. 🎁 However, some delays are out of our control due to the handmade nature of our products. 🌿 Delays can be caused by anything from supplier issues to human error. If you're concerned your item might not arrive in time, please don’t hesitate to contact us at support@modernviking.com.au. Our lovely team will happily help by suggesting an alternative item, providing a more realistic delivery timeline, or issuing a full refund if needed. 🛡️
We highly recommend ordering well in advance of the special occasion or choosing another amazing item that's currently in stock. 🏺✨ We appreciate your understanding and support as we craft each unique Viking treasure with care! ⚒️
⚔️ We take absolute pride and care in every single item we create. 🛡️ The process is incredibly extensive, especially for pre-ordered items like our drinking horns, which go through a rigorous journey to achieve the shiny and perfect look they’re known for.
Here’s a quick breakdown of what goes into making each horn:
- We start by sourcing the raw materials, which need to be treated for almost a week. 🌿
- After treatment, they’re thoroughly cleaned and inspected to find the perfect horns for carving.
- Each horn is then hand-carved—yes, every design is done entirely by hand. This process alone takes several days. 🛠️
- Once carved, the horn is washed again and carefully colored within the carving. The paint takes a few days to fully dry before we polish the horn to perfection.
- After the paint is set, any excess is removed, and the horn is food-safe sealed—not once, but six times. Each layer of sealing takes at least two days to dry in good, sunny weather. ☀️
- After the final seal, the horn is polished again to give it that shiny finish. Then, it’s washed one last time, tested for any leaks, and prepared for packaging. 📦
This is just a brief summary of our painstaking process, and we hope you can appreciate the time and dedication we pour into each item. Our items are not just gifts—they are journeys and talking pieces that should be cherished and respected for the fine craftsmanship they represent. ⚒️ Your horn is made to be more than just a product; it’s a piece of Viking history, forged with care and precision. 🏺✨
⚔️ Final Carve for 2024 Update: Carving has been underway for months, and we’re excited to announce that the latest stock will arrive by 15/11! 🛡️ This is your last opportunity to get one of our handcrafted Viking horns before we stop carving for the year. Each horn takes over 2 months to go through its journey—from treatment, carving, polishing, to packing—so we’ve been preparing to ensure everything is ready just in time for Christmas. 🎄
We highly recommend thinking ahead and placing your pre-order now to avoid missing out. 🏺🔥 For 2024, we’re guaranteeing that all pre-orders will be delivered before Christmas. 🎁✨ Don't miss the chance to gift something truly special to your loved ones this holiday season! ⚔️
