Reversing Falls Ornament
Details
What stories the seagulls tell--what sights they've seen from far above this rocky gorge, where, every day, the St. John River and the Bay of Fundy take centre stage in a three-act drama--high, slack and low tide--a performance like no other on earth. In the collision that takes place between the river and the world's highest and most powerful tides at high tide, waves and rapids as big as a house roar through the gorge. At slack tide, for 30 minutes or so every six hours, the current is calm and tranquil.
Aitkens Pewter proudly presents The Reversing Falls Ornament. This skillfully designed and beautifully crafted work of art celebrates the remarkable gorge through which the St. John River rushes and the nine-metre tides of Fundy rise and fall.
The Reversing Falls Ornament, from Aitkens Pewter, designed and crafted for people who appreciate the power of nature, and the stories the seagulls tell.
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
We strive to process and ship all orders in a timely manner, working diligently to ensure that your items are on their way to you as soon as possible.

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.
