FAQs

Preserve antique treen by keeping it away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations, treating it occasionally with microcrystalline wax to protect the dry timber surface.

An antique quaich can be displayed on a bookshelf or mantelpiece as a sculptural object, or used on a surface to hold small items such as keys or trinkets.

Authentic pieces are identified through tool marks indicating hand-carving, natural timber shrinkage, deep historical patina, and traditional lug handle formations rather than modern machinery precision.

These vessels are typically carved from native hardwoods such as sycamore, laburnum, or boxwood, often featuring stave-constructed bodies or turned treen construction with characteristic lug handles.

A quaich is a traditional Scottish two-handled drinking vessel originating in the Highlands, historically used for sharing a welcome cup or a farewell dram among friends.
