This handcrafted Pewter Quaich will be engraved with your own personalised message up to 50 characters in the bowl. An unusual and valued gift for a Best Man, or as a Wedding, Christening or Birthday gift. The Highland Quaich - "the cup of friendship".
This Quaich Bowl is made of the finest pewter and is handmade in the U.K. Pewterware is made entirely by the skilled hands of a pewtersmith. No two pieces of pewter are exactly the same, minor variations and imperfections show the mark of each craftsman reflecting the art and beauty of all individually made pieces - a break away from the modern machine world.
The word QUAICH is derived from the Gaelic word "Cuach", which means "shallow cup" or as we know it today, a "drinking cup". The Quaich originated in the Scottish Highlands centuries ago and became the favourite drinking cup throughout Scotland. Traditionally, the Quaich is used when offering a guest "the cup of welcome" and again for the farewell or parting drink. The simple but pleasingly distinctive design of the Quaich has remained unchanged over the centuries - a shallow bowl with two handles, known as "lugs". Originally made from wood, horn or leather, the Highland Quaich is now made of Pewter or Silver and is a popular gift and prized possession by many people who have an association with Scotland.
