Pewter – alloy of tin (85-99%), antimony (5-10%), copper and bismuth (hardeners) and sometimes silver. Modern European mixtures contain about 92% tin, 2% copper and 6% antimony, and small additions of other metals such as lead, cadmium and nickel. The melting point of 170-230C, depending on the composition of the mix, makes the metal ideal for machining and casting. The alloy was used to make ornaments and utilitarian items in the ancient world by the Egyptians and later the Romans. Glass and ceramics gradually began to displace tin craftsmanship and in the 18th century pewter ceased to be the main material for the production of plates, cups and bowls. In England, the processing of this alloy was initiated by the Romans, and after their withdrawal the craft collapsed. It wasn’t until the 12th century that the Cistercians resumed processing techniques and pewter became an English specialty. The presented Alchemy Gothic jewelry comes from the oldest English craft traditions and is a unique product of manual human work. It is inspired by ancient legends, Greek, Germanic and Scandinavian mythology. They are often replicas of jewelry from archaeological discoveries.
