Quaich is a Scots rendering of the the Gaelic word "cuach"; meaning a cup. Quaichs were used for whisky or brandy, and in the 19th century Sir Walter Scott dispensed drams in silver inlaid quaichs. Used for visitor's welcome or farewell cup by proud Clan Chiefs, worthy merchants, or humble crofters, the quaich has kept its simple but beautiful shape and friendly purpose. Engraving: we can arrange engraving at a charge of 30p (0.3 UK pounds) per letter, with a minimum charge of 5 pounds. We surcharge this after ordering; it is not shown on the checkout page, but will be on your receipt email after your order is charged. By default, engraved text will be around the outside of the bowl. Please notify us if you would prefer your message on the base or on a matching plinth (purchased separately), and we will be happy to arrange this. Please note that engraving adds 1-2 weeks to the delivery time. |
