About the Business
Modern Pewter (European Standard EN611) is a silver-grey alloy composed of 92% tin with copper and antimony to harden it. Contrary to popular belief it does not contain lead. Pewter Guilds were formed in various European countries as early as the 1300's. It was used in well-to-do households of the Middle Ages as a replacement for wooden tableware and was unrivalled until nearly 1800.
Although not considered a precious metal in the same way as platinum, gold and silver, pewter is a valuable metal in its own right.
