Description
A unique gift for a man for a Birthday, Christmas or 10th Wedding Anniversary. These cufflinks have been individually hand-crafted in shiny modern pewter using the repousse method. Each link measures 2cm, 0.75ins,across. Presents in a smart grey gift box. This design will not be repeated, so buy while you can!
<br />
<br />Each pewter piece has been individually made by hand (not cast) to my own design. A pattern is raised on a sheet of pewter, then the raised area is filled. The item is then mounted on a rigid base,chemically patinated, then polished. Modern pewter is lead-free and after patination has a shiny,almost reflective,finish.It does not blacken like silver and can be brightened, if necessary,with a smear of metal polish and a buffing with a soft cloth.
