Turkopp/cup for hiking

A friend of mine made me these wonderful hiking cups. I have never seen them in miniatures before. One of his hobbies are woodworking, but not miniatures. I gave him a challenge, asking him if he could make hikingcups in 1:12. He did good, don`t you think? They are so cute! Thank you very much Roy.

I don`t know if hiking cups made of wood is common in other countries, in Norway they have been used for many many many years. Norwegian go hiking a lot in the mountains and woods, the cup is just hanging on the backpack and if you come to a pure stream or river, the cup is there ready to use. And of course you can use it for your coffee, soup etc.
They were probably used more in the past than nowadays, but a lot of Norwegian have them at home.

As you can see, in our house there are three hiking cups :)

Do you have hiking cups made of wood in your country?

In real life our hiking cups hang on the kitchen wall, and here is one in my dollhouse kitchen.

If you want to see more hiking cups, take a look at these cups - not miniatures: /http://eagleproducts.no/treartikler/kopper_krus_i_tre/

Shopping in Denmark
