Description
Manufactory Mullingar Pewter is a synonym for handcrafted craftsmanship combined with the highest quality Irish pewter.
Ancient pewter-making craftsmanship was revived in Ireland by Paddy Collins in Mullingar in 1974. Paddy's son, Peter, now runs the company and employs 30 local people. Most of the pewter pieces are still produced in a traditional manner in their own workshop by local men and women, specially trained in old casting methods, meticulous assembly, and delicate hand finishing.
Acquiring these skills takes years. When creating these exquisite products, the brand consistently applies the highest standards of design and quality control. Most designs are inspired by Celtic crosses and many monuments scattered across the Irish countryside. These original items are practical for everyday use, beautifully decorated with Irish, Celtic, Kells, Woodland, Legend, Religious, and Generic patterns.
Over time, Mullingar pewter has become very popular and highly valued by collectors from all over the world.
All soldering is now done using lead-free solder, especially for food or drink items. Their range of creative Irish gifts features many Irish motifs suitable for any occasion.
What is pewter made of
Originally, pewter was made from a mixture of lead and tin. Today, the raw materials consist of 95% tin, with the rest made up of copper and antimony. The brand guarantees that their pewter products are lead-free and completely safe for use with all kinds of food and beverages.

| Additional information | Hurling is now more popular than ever, with the All-Ireland final taking place every August at Croke Park Stadium. In recent years it has become a global sport due to the extensive Irish diaspora. It is worth noting that hurling has been played in Ireland for over 3,000 years. It is said to be one of the most skill-demanding and fastest grass games. It is played with a ball (Sliotar) and a stick (Hurley) with a team of 15 players on each side, and the game lasts 70 minutes. This exquisitely crafted tin sculpture depicts a single blaster in action in full detail. |
