All pewter we offer is made of the finest lead-free alloy of tin, copper and antimony. The tin imparts a fine sheen and malleability. Over time and with use, your pewter will develop a wonderful patina. Due to the high quality of pewter alloy used, this pewter contains no lead.
• Pewter will last for generations if cared for properly.
• Many collectors feel that pewter benefits from handling as it develops a distinctive, warm patina the more it is used.
• Though certain conditions will cause pewter to oxidize and darken, pewter does not tarnish like silver and copper. Pewter can be cleaned with warm soapy water, rinsed, then towel dried with a soft cloth. Do not wash pewter in an automatic dishwasher as the heat and detergent can be harmful to the piece.
• There are various pewter cleaners and polishes available to maintain your pewter.
• Pewter should never be used in an oven, microwave or on the stove top and should not be exposed to a direct flame.
