3.5 Inch Wedding Congratulations Quaich Bowl
3.5 Inch Wedding Congratulations Quaich Bowl
Traditionally the "Quaich", which originated in the Scottish Highlands, was used both for a "Cup of Welcome" and also when offering a farewell drink.
The Quaich was traditionally made from the primitive "staved" wood, then later from horn or leather, eventually pewter and silver becoming popular as it became the favourite drinking cup throughout Scotland.
Being derived form the Gaelic word "cuach" meaning "shallow cup" the distinctive design has remained unchanged over the centuries - a shallow drinking bowl with two handles, colloquially known as "lugs".
It is known that in 1589 King James IV of Scotland gave a Quaich, or "Loving Cup" as a wedding gift to Anne of Denmark.
Inscribed around the rim of the bowl with "Congratulations on your Wedding"
