This Medium Quaich measures 3.5" It is made of pewter and has a detailed band around the upper ring of the outside. There is a Celtic knot design on the inside of the bowl.
The word "Quaich" is derived from the Gaelic "cuach" which means shallow cup. It became a favorite drinking cup throughout Scotland, originating centuries ago in the Western Highlands. Used for welcoming visitors or bidding farewell to friends, the Quaich was used by proud clan chiefs, worthy merchants or humble crofters and, as such, this unique yet simple drinking vessel has kept its beautiful shape and friendly purpose.
