From the foundry of American artisans Thomas & Patricia Hooper.
A wonderful collection of lead free pewter cast or spun in the manner of colonial times.
The Hoopers are honored to be pewter makers for the acclaimed HBO mini-series "John Adams".
All items can be purchased with polished or antiqued finish when you add to your cart.
Polished or Antiqued?
Mix or match? Whatever you like! If you are going to use it often- then wash it often - pick polished.
Thomas & Patricia tell me clean and polished is most "authentic" to everyday use in colonial times.
On the other hand, the antiqued candleholder is one of my favorites. I like both. After all, it's just
fun to collect and look at! The polished has a clean, newly minted unused look. Many of the items
display minor pits, bumps, imperfections adding authentic character typical of colonial casting.

ASL Pewter answers question about
how the antique finish is done:
"We use a simple acid wash that darkens the pewter. We always neutralize the wash and then finish the pewter. The oxidation is just a coating and will scrape off. the pewter is always food safe and can be used for food.
some fatty foods may discolor slightly. that is normal."
