MADE IN SHEFFIELD
All pewter products are handcrafted in the world-renowned manufacturing city of Sheffield. Sheffield has been synonymous with high-quality production for centuries. Although smaller than in previous decades, this trend continues today, and Sheffield remains a leader in the production of fine cutlery, steel, and pewter.
A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE SINCE 1977
Pewter, an easy-to-work alloy, has been with us since biblical times. The earliest mentions of pewter in the UK date back to Roman times around 250 AD. Its significance as a metal and commodity did not fully develop until the Middle Ages. This period, often called the “Golden Age of English Yeoman,” marked the transformation of the material into everyday use, made possible by economic growth, especially through the mass export of British wool and textiles, and increasing access to raw materials for pewter production.
Pewter production remained a cottage industry until 1770, when Jessop and Hancock developed a new pewter alloy in Sheffield, containing antimony instead of lead and a bit of copper, known as Britannia metal, which could be given a bright polish. Soon, a new manufacturing method called metal spinning was developed, leading to a significant increase in pewter ware production. As a result, a lightweight, highly refined product emerged, quickly becoming a popular alternative to more expensive silver-plated items.
PRODUCT OF THE YEAR
In 2019 and 2021, the English Pewter Company brand was immensely proud that not just one, but two of their products made it onto the short list of the prestigious Gift of the Year Awards. The awards are presented by The Giftware Association, which represents tens of thousands of companies worldwide and includes a panel of independent judges from leading figures in the gift industry.
Exclusive English Pewter Company products are an ideal gift idea for someone special. They can also be personalized with hand engraving or laser engraving. Additionally, all items come in an elegant black case and a prestigious gift box.
