Item Description

The Sweet William pewter vase is made by hand in Middlebury, Vermont workshop. This pewter vase measures 5" high and comes in a gift box with care instructions.  The sparkly band around the middle is gorgeous!

 

Thomas Danforth II opened a pewter workshop in 1755 in colonial Connecticut, and generations of the Danforth family followed him into the pewter trade. Before the 1860s, almost every American household had pewter plates and cups, and the Danforths were one of the leading families in American pewter.

We are passionate about our craft and proud of our family's longtime involvement in the rich history of pewter making in America. We strive to keep artisan pewter alive and well in the 21st century by offering a wide range of items, with both original contemporary designs and classic pieces.
