Antique Pewter
The following pewter items are all antique originals, dating from either the 18th century, or early 19th. All are at least 150 years old. Many times the style of pewter from this period changed little over the decades, as often the same molds were employed for many years. We attempt to describe these pieces as accurately as possible and when possible, give our opinion as to region of manufacture and date. All have minor scratches and a nice patina consistent with their age.
