Hi Folks - quick question. I have a scene where a medicine lady make a patient a herbal tea. What is the most likely vessel she would have used? What would it have been made of. They are not gentry but ordinary country folk
If you say it is wood, make sure it is the right wood. So that the right wood would work. A Yew drinking vessel might look amazing, be intricately carved with wonderful graining. But it could be poisonous over prolonged use [or even short use - I know it can be toxic, but I don't know how toxic].
I agree, wood or clay would be the most likely in this situation, horn and bone might also be a good choice if the character is more of a hunter, for lack of better term.
