Details
Established in 1907 as the Nova Scotia Technical College, DalTech is today a constituent college of Dalhousie University. The college began with this single building on Spring Garden Road and conferred its first degrees in civil, electrical, mechanical, metallurgical, and mining engineering in 1920. New programs were eventually added, such as agriculture, chemical, food science, and industrial engineering. In 1961, the school of architecture was founded. The campus grew to include buildings on Barrington, Queen, and Morris street. in 1980, the "Tech" changed it's name to the Technical University of Nova Scotia, and became commonly known as "TUNS".
Since amalgamating with Dalhousie University in April 1997, TUNS has assumed the name DalTech, and this original building houses its Faculty of Architecture.
DalTech endeavours to continue in the tradition of its predecessor, by maintaining an impressive academic and research standing on an international level.
Materials + Care
Caring for your pewter
Wash after use with warm water and a mild soap. Jewellery and pieces that don't touch food or drink can also be cleaned with Windex and paper towel. Never put pewter in the dishwasher.
Polished (shiny) finish: bring back the shine with a jeweller's rouge cloth. We use Fabulustre, but any rouge cloth from a hardware or jewellery store works.
Satin (matte) finish: buff out scratches and dullness with a Scotch-Brite or scouring pad, rubbing with the grain.

Handcrafted Since 1972
Every piece begins as molten pewter. Jewelry, ornaments, frames and coasters are cast, chased and finished; mugs, goblets, vases and bowls are spun on a lathe. Each one is polished by hand before it's packed. All our pewter is lead-free and nickel-free, a good choice if other jewellery irritates your skin.
