This silver quaich, or drinking cup, was crafted around 1670 by the artist R. B. It features a shallow bowl with two loop handles and a short, flared foot. The surface of the quaich is decorated with engraved floral motifs and geometric patterns, adding an element of sophistication to this functional piece. Quaichs were commonly used in Scotland, and this particular example is a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of the 17th century.
