Loving Mugs

What is a loving MUG?

Loving mugs and cups are drinking vessels with two handles, one either side. Traditionally made of silver, loving cups were used as shared drinking cups at events such as weddings, banquets and other ceremonial events.

Loving cups are used to symbolise friendship, unity, and love. When a loving cup is shared, you symbolise the unity between yourself and the other person or people who drank from it! Loving cups are sometimes also used as an award or trophy, which is why they take a similar shape to modern day trophies you often see, particularly at sporting events.
