gifted, fashioned, crafted from a tree trunk
exquisite in its usefulness and shape
hollowed in the centre for the purpose
of holding liquid for our thirst to slake
gifted from the giver of the airy
fashioned for liquidity of life
crafted by the hands of man in union
with sources and the gifts for which we strive
no need for gilding or adornment
its beauty lies in purpose and in form
simplicity from complex matter
life- holding from life-giving
lovingly borne

We have a pewter one – a christening gift for our youngest from a Scottish god parent. He explained the two handles were so you had to hand it with both hands – ensuring you had no weapons.

That’s a lovely memento to have. I enjoy these sorts of items especially if there’s a story or two to go along with them.
