"Excellent for chilled pumpkin juice, but not ideal for hot tea."
Book of Spells[src]

A goblet, also known as a chalice,[1] is a cup used to hold a liquid, usually a drink. Goblets were usually made out of crystal or various metals, such as gold and silver, and often sculpted by goblins.[6] They were used to hold drinks at the Start-of-Term Feasts at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[5]

History[]

In the 1880s or 1890, Cressida Blume once tried to cast the Banishing Charm nonverbally on a goblet in the Great Hall at Hogwarts, but launched Professor Aesop Sharp's Yorkshire pudding into his face instead, which Sharp was not happy about.[7]

The Goblet of Fire was a magical object that decided the champions of the Triwizard Tournament.[8]

The Black family owned a set of fifteenth-century goblin-wrought silver goblets, embossed with their family crest, that were stored at 12 Grimmauld Place and used by the Order of the Phoenix during the summer of 1995.[4] In late 1996, Harry Potter discovered Mundungus Fletcher in Hogsmeade with some of these goblets, which he had stolen.[9]

Champagne was served in goblets during the wedding of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour.[2]

When Remus Lupin and the residents of Shell Cottage toasted to the birth of Remus's son Teddy Lupin in spring of 1998, their hosts Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour served the wine in goblets.[3]
