Know before you buy
A quaich is a traditional Scottish drinking vessel, historically used to share a dram of whisky. It is characterized by its shallow bowl shape and two side handles, symbolizing friendship and hospitality.
No, each piece is individually hand-painted, meaning there will be subtle variations in the brushwork and pattern. The images provided are representative of the design, but your specific item will be a one-of-a-kind piece.
Yes, its 15cm diameter makes it quite versatile. Beyond its traditional use, it functions perfectly as a small serving bowl for snacks, nuts, or as a decorative dish for keys and trinkets.
Highland Stoneware is known for its robust, high-fired construction. It is designed to be functional and durable, making it suitable for regular use in a home setting.
While the stoneware is durable, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the hand-painted finish over time. Avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.
