What is a pewter pitcher made of?
1 Answer
A pewter pitcher is made out of a metal called pewter. The material is an alloy produced out of tin and another metal or element like bismuth, silver, copper or antimony. Some older pewterware is a combination of tin and lead. Use this type of pitcher only as a decorative object because it’s not food-safe. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of pewter pieces.
