A seamless harmony of good looks and effortless versatility has made it the preferred choice for those seeking enduring beauty. From Ancient Egypt to today’s devotees — it traces a shimmering thread of authenticity that spans centuries.Born from tin, copper and antimony, MATCH pewter is lead-free and made from 95% tin - an exceptionally high quantity of the world’s fourth most expensive metal after platinum, gold and silver. Nothing less produces the quality we demand, nor qualifies for the 95 stamp you’ll find on every piece.Unlike silver, pewter resists tarnishing and demands almost no maintenance to retain a warm splendor over years. Making things by hand takes time. Craftsmanship embodies authenticity. It can’t be faked. Of course, there’s a cost to this but we think every moment is well spent. And, when you hold a MATCH piece in your hand, feel the warmth of the pewter, the ridges of the antique mold and note all the finishing details, we think you’ll agree.
