Product code: Mlilgan pewter stout top
The history of Irish Pewter goes back 800 years. The early craftsmen produced the top first domestic pewter utensils, consisting mainly of tankards, plates and candlesticks. Around the 12th. century, pewter was only for the wealthy, where it was found on the tables in kings' castles, and in rich merchants' and churchmens' houses. Later the use of pewter spread into taverns and cottages. In the 18th and 19th centuries, with the introduction of pottery and glass, pewter use declined.
