A quaich is a shallow two-handled drinking cup or bowl. The word derives from the Scottish Gaelic 'cuach', meaning a cup. They are often used at weddings and other ceremonial occasions in Scotland, where they may signify love, friendship or co-operation. This tradition dates back at least to King James VI, who gave a 'loving cup' to Anne of Denmark in 1589. They are also given as awards and prizes, or to recognise significant events and achievements such as graduations.
