Child's Beaker DoDo 925 Silver Angel — Christening motif, 100 ml

If at the time of purchase it is not yet known whether a boy or a girl is being baptized — or if you are consciously looking for a timeless, universal motif — the guardian angel is the classic answer. No other motif in the DoDo collection carries so much quiet meaning in such a small form.

Material and workmanship

The basic shape is classically cylindrical with a slightly raised rim — the purist silhouette of the DoDo collection. The angel relief is embossed plastically into the silver: folded hands, halo, softly curved wings, embedded in a cloud-shaped contour. The motif appears calm and ethereal, intended not as a naturalistic representation but as a symbol. No enamel field, no color on the relief itself — the silver works through form and light. The DoDo signature sits on the handle: colorful enamel dots in green, yellow, and blue.

Occasions and target groups

In the Christian tradition, the guardian angel is the central baptism motif — it stands for heavenly guidance, protection, and care throughout one's life. Even in non-religious families, the motif has established itself as a universal sign of shelter and love. Key occasions include baptism, naming ceremonies, birth, and the first birthday; it is also suitable for First Communion or confirmation. For spiritual-religious families, the angel is often the first choice. The motif is explicitly gender-neutral — ideal if the child's gender is not yet known at the time of purchase or if you wish to give a deliberately neutral gift.

Engraving and SilberVerse card

The smooth back can be engraved upon verification — a name and baptism date, a baptismal blessing, or a short Bible verse are particularly well-suited to the motif. Classic dedications such as "May angels guide you" or "Under God’s protection" complement the motif harmoniously. The engraving is carried out after verification and personal consultation — please contact us briefly before ordering, and we will advise you on placement, font, and text length. Upon request, we can include a personal SilberVerse card in photo format (15 × 10 cm landscape) — individually designed to suit the occasion and the child, free of charge.

Care

925 sterling silver is durable. After use, rinse with lukewarm water and mild detergent, and dry with a soft cloth. The enamel dots on the handle are fired at high temperatures — do not use scouring agents or aggressive cleaners. For patina, a silver polishing cloth helps with gentle polishing, especially on the fine wing details with a soft cloth. Do not place in the dishwasher, and do not use silver baths directly on the enamel. Between occasions, it is best to store the cup in the DoDo gift box or a velvet pouch.

Frequently asked questions

Is the angel cup only suitable for religious families?
No. The motif originated in a Christian context but has long since established itself as a timeless symbol of protection and shelter — many non-religious families choose it as a beautiful, lasting image.

Is the cup suitable for girls or boys?
Both. Unlike the teddy bear boy (bow tie) or teddy bear girl (bow), the angel bears no gender-specific details and fits both children equally well.

Can the cup be engraved?
Yes. The back is suitable for a name, baptism date, baptismal blessing, or Bible verse. The engraving is carried out after verification.
