A quaich is a traditional Scottish drinking vessel, characterised by a shallow bowl and two opposing handles known as lugs, historically used for welcoming guests or offering a dram of whisky.

Quaichs were originally carved from wood, often with intricate staved construction or horn, but from the 17th century onwards, they became increasingly crafted from sterling silver by skilled metalsmiths.

Authentic pieces feature clear British hallmarks stamped on the metal, indicating the makers mark, assay office, purity standard, and date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

This piece can be displayed on a sideboard or mantelpiece as a decorative focal point, or used practically as a distinctive container for small accessories.

Sterling silver should be cleaned periodically with a specialised non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth, then stored in a dry, tarnish-resistant environment when not on display.
