Description: | At the first supper of Dumfries Burns Club, held in the Globe Inn, Dumfries on 25th January 1819, it was decided to open a subscription for the purchase of a punch bowl. This bowl was made by Josiah Spode of Stoke on Trent and first used in 1820.
The pedestal carries the names of the 35 subscribers to the purchase of the bowl and also of a silver liner, ladle, jugs and glasses. The punch bowl is one of the most valued relics of Dumfries Burns Club and is still used at their annual suppers. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0 | Publisher: | Dumfries & Galloway Council - Nithsdale Museums | Source: | Burns Scotland | Identifier: | Punch bowl of Dumfries Burns Club, detai | Go to resource |
