Product Description
A four-footed beast, having the build of a lion, with scaly body, large bat wings, forked tongue and tail.
Symbol of Wales, this red dragon represents vigilance.

This version of our Welsh Dragon is hand carved and painted as detailed in the photos above.
All our beer tankards and jacks are handmade from natural materials which can never be consistent in colour. Whilst every endeavour is made to control colour consistency, each item is offered as an individual piece. However, it will always be the actual colour ordered.
If you would prefer a personalised beer tankard or jack, please do use the “Add Personalisation” option above. More information regarding personalisation can be found here.
As our Welsh Dragon covers the majority of the side of our tankards and jacks, any required personalisation can be engraved on the base of the vessel.
Historically, leather tankards were lined with either boiled Resin of the birch tree, Brewer’s Pitch, or Beeswax. Our full grain leather drinking vessels are lined with an epoxy resin to echo the historic use of resin whilst having the visual appearance of Brewer’s pitch. The resin we use is fully certified for use in both the food and alcohol industries.
