Wooden drinking vessels were relatively common during the Viking Age due to the abundance of wood in Scandinavia and their ease of construction. They were typically made from a single piece of wood and were sometimes decorated with intricate carvings and made in shape of Vikings ships with Dragon heads.

It's worth noting that Vikings also used drinking horns made from animal horns or tusks, as well as pottery and glass vessels obtained through trade or raiding. The specific drinking vessel used often depended on the occasion and the status of the person drinking.

Weddings were important occasions in Viking society, and they were typically celebrated with a feast that lasted several days. Drinking and eating played a significant role in these festivities, and it's probable that special drinking vessels were used to mark the occasion.
