A centuries old tradition continues...
During medieval times, pewter amulets, ornaments, and religious pictures, became popular. The craftsmen of Diessen, in Bavaria, were famous for their ambition and artistic talent. The Schweizer family has kept this tradition alive for over 200 years. They base their pewter art on original designs- often hundreds of years old. The accuracy and intricacy of the finished pieces are testimony to the pewter caster's art and skill.
Our selection of pewter art ranges from Christmas ornaments {can be found in the German ornament section}, to Easter themes; from standing figures to pictures for walls and windows; all designed with loving care and respect for heritage and tradition.
We carry hundreds of pieces in our inventory, and can special order hundreds more. Contact us contact us @ 800-244-2197 with any special questions or needs.
