| Description |
English: Pair of large drinking horns, found at Taplow, 6th century.
British Museum description: "Pair of drinking horns, Anglo-Saxon, late 6th century AD. From the princely burial at Taplow, Buckinghamshire. Made from Aurochs horns with silver-gilt mounts [...] The horns are mounted with bird-headed terminals and panels of silver-gilt foils at the mouth. The lip is protected by a silver-gilt rim binding held by four clips in the form of a Style I human face with high brow and rounded cheeks. Beneath the rim-binding are rectangular foils decorated with a garnet-centred rosette flanked by Style I creatures. The creatures have 'helmeted' heads and raised hands and are similar to those in the triangular mounts below. Each terminal is ornamented with a cast Style II bird head with a simple curling beak and rounded head." Literature:
