It is wedding season! Why not give a gift that your favorite soon to be wed couple will cherish for a lifetime? Are you a couple about to get married, why not hand craft a beautiful piece together first to display at your wedding, and then to have at home as a wonderful reminder of the love you share? A wooden goblet with wooden rings around it, symbolizing an unbreakable bond, is a German wedding tradition often know as a "Brautigamspokal" or a "Gautsch." This beautiful traditional item is often used in weddings to symbolize the enduring nature of the martial bond. The rings around the goblet are carved from the same peice of wood, making them totally in separable from the goblet itself, which reinforces the symbolism of unity and permanence in the marriage.
