Choose from a dozen objects, from animals to pendants, and create your own piece by casting, sawing, clamping, filing, and polishing with a copper brush or steel wool.

 

You’ll go home with your handmade figurine in a lovely little pouch.

 

The craft of pewter casting dates back to Roman times. During the Middle Ages, it was used to make plates, spoons, cups, and pitchers. De Tinnen Lepel practices this age-old craft in a contemporary way, creating animals, pendants, toy soldiers, and various other objects using both traditional and modern casting techniques.

 

Roger van Driel has been passionately practicing the art of pewter casting for over nine years. He enjoys sharing his knowledge about the different casting and finishing techniques.
