Engraved glassware shaped by the character of Scottish Gaelic, a language that moves between humour, rhythm and direct expression, influencing how each phrase is arranged and balanced on glass.

Letter spacing, line breaks and emphasis are carefully controlled to ensure clarity and flow, allowing each engraving to read cleanly while retaining the tone and structure of the original wording.
