Men and women have been imbibing the amber nectar from pewter tankards for over 400 years, over the past few decades they stopped using lead in the smelting process – resulting in tankards that won’t give you a side order of peripheral neuropathy and encephalopathy when you take a swig of ale.
Each of these tankards is handmade in England and measures 5″ high with a 1 pint capacity, the pewter used in non-tarnishing and it’s polished to a mirror finish.
