FAQs

Originating in the Scottish Highlands, the quaich is a traditional shallow, two-handled drinking cup symbolising trust and hospitality. Traditionally used to share a welcoming draught of whisky or ale, silversmiths later produced decorative versions in sterling silver during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Edwardian silver quaichs were crafted predominantly from sterling silver (925 purity). Artisans utilized techniques such as hand-piercing, fretwork, repousse decoration, and lost-wax casting for the intricate lug handles before soldering them to a raised circular foot base.

Authentic British Edwardian silver features official assay office hallmarks stamped into the metal, including a lion passant for sterling silver, an assay office symbol (such as a leopards head for London or anchor for Birmingham), a makers mark, and a specific date letter corresponding to the years 19011910.

A silver quaich functions as a refined accent piece on a dining sideboard, bar cart, or coffee table tray. It can serve as a trinket dish for keys or cufflinks, or be grouped alongside antique glassware and decanters to add texture and metallic contrast.

To maintain sterling silver, clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth and a dedicated, non-abrasive silver polish to remove tarnish. Avoid dipping fluids or harsh chemicals that strip deliberate patination from pierced work, and store in an anti-tarnish cloth pouch away from excess humidity.
