Details
A great deal of history has unfolded in Halifax Harbour including the December 1917 Halifax Explosion, the world's largest man-made accidental explosion. For the more than one million immigrants who passed through Halifax's Pier 21 between 1928 and 1971, the harbour provided the first glimpse of their newly adopted country. As a port of call for tall ships and cruise ships, it's an enjoyable and visually stimulating experience to tour the harbour and see all the sites. Visitors and Haligonians can take tours on the Tall Ship Silva, a 130-foot schooner; the amphibious Harbour Hopper; the Harbour Queen; the Bluenose II, when it's in port; and the Harbour Ferry, a popular and inexpensive way to see the harbour.
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.
Shipping + Returns

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.
