By buying hand cast pewter you are helping protect one of the rarest and oldest rural heritage crafts – dating back to the bronze age. We are now one of only a handful of pewterers left and all our pewter is made by hand using traditional methods which haven’t changed in centuries. Pewter has a wonderful deep glow and is heavier than expected in your hand. William has been working with pewter for 25 years and everything he makes is guaranteed for life. We use the finest Britannia Pewter which won’t cause an allergic reaction. It doesn’t contain lead or nickel and doesn’t flake, rust or tarnish, because we never use chemicals on it. If you need to clean pewter, use detergent or soap and rub it with a soft cloth, rinsing and drying afterwards. William starts by carving a master from which he constructs a silicon mold using a vulcanizer to heat silicon until it becomes liquid and envelopes the master. On cooling a perfect replica of the master is made embedded in the silicon. To create further pieces air ducts are carefully cut into the silicon – these allow the air to escape as molten pewter enters the mold. The positioning of these vents is crucial to the success of the mold and they can take several hours to get right. Pewter is hand ladled into completed molds to create new pieces which are left to cool before being cleaned up and polished ready for soldering or drilling.
