- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Before ceramics were common for household goods, pewter was the material of choice for tankards. The earliest pewter tankards date back to the mid-17th century. Pewter was a practical choice, especially for pubs, because it was durable and inexpensive. It was also very easy to care for, in fact, dented mugs can even be reshaped. It should be noted that older pewter was made using lead, which is poisonous, but today’s pewter is lead-free. Shop a collection of tankards from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
