Drambuie Bonny Prince Charlie Figurine (34cm) & Miniature (5cl)
Lot #1290156
FINISH DATE
31 August 2024
A striking, hand-painted statue of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the oringinal creator of the Scotch Whisky Liqueur, Drambuie, a blend of aged Scotch whisky, spices, herbs & heather honey. Accompanied by a dram of the liqueur itself.
Its origins can be traced to a secret recipe created for Bonnie Prince Charlie by his Royal Apothecary in the 18th Century. The name Drambuie is derived from Scots Gaelic 'An Dram Buidheach' and means “The Drink that Satisfies”. The legend goes that after the Battle of Culloden, he gave the elixir to a Scottish clan on the Isle of Skye in gratitude for their hospitality as he awaited safe passage back home.
The figurine itself stands an imposing 34cm tall, or (13 and a hawf inches in auld money). He appears to be in contemplative mood, squating on a treestump. Perhaps an ironic smile on his face as he surveys the battlefield at Culloden before he runs off.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I bid on the auctions?
You’ll need an account with us to place bids in any auction. Registration takes 60 seconds and there’s a small £5.00 registration fee, payable by credit or debit card. Once paid, you will be registered and can place bids in the auction immediately. The registration fee helps us ensure you’re a real person and a genuine bidder.
Why does the timer extend on a lot?
In the interest of fairness, any bids placed in the final five minutes of a particular lot will extend the end time of that Lot by 15 minutes. We believe in giving our customers a fair amount of time to increase their bid should they wish. Last second sniping isn’t in the spirit of our auctions and by using this system there is no benefit to doing so.
