Fine Christmas Pewter

Pewter is an alloy or mixture of metals that can contain various percentages of tin, lead, antimony, bismuth, copper or silver.

The best pewter or "Fine Pewter" contains at least 92% tin and no lead. Antimony and bismuth add varying degrees of strength and/or hardness. It is sad to note that some low grade pewters contain as much as 80% lead. These are to be avoided, especially if the pewter will be used in contact with food or beverages.

All of the pewter products on this site are a high grade "Fine Pewter" which is lead-free.

If the item has a highly polished finish, some light tarnish can be removed with pewter polish (similar to polishing silver). Do not use silver polish on pewter. You can obtain pewter polish at higher-end retailers who sell pewter serving items. 3. If the item has a satin or matte finish, you can rub it gently with very fine "0000" steel wool. It is best to try a small a spot on the bottom first to see how it looks.
