Pewter Artisans

Forks have their purpose, but a plate is worth its weight in, er, pewter.

Pewter is an alloy, consisting primarily of tin. Its exact constituents were not properly stratified until after the dawn of the 1st millennium AD, so the pewter of antiquity was formed of various compounds, including copper, antimony, bismuth, lead and sometimes silver, even. The combination of elements used to create Pewter affected its strength and purpose - stronger alloys were made from copper, with poorer quality pewter containing lead. In the ancient world, tin was a rare metal, in many places more valuable even than gold. Pewter took on the role, therefore, of both pragmatic item and accessory - it was used to make forks, dishes and eventually surgical tools, as well as earrings, necklaces and other items of jewellery.
