You feel quality and craftsmanship when you hold an Aitkens Pewter creation in your hand. That's because you're also holding more than 45 years of dedication to the art of producing pewter products of the highest standard. Aitkens Pewter craftspeople employ the time-honoured metal-craft skills of casting and spinning.
Products such as coasters, frames, jewelry and ornaments are cast from molten pewter, chased and finished. Hollowware - products such as mugs, goblets, vases and bowls - is spun on a lathe with the cast handles and stems carefully brazed into place. When each piece is completed, it's polished by hand and carefully placed in its package.

Ornament Collections
Report
In the past, it was a great tradition to have your ornament reserved for you each year, with your unique serial number stamped into each piece of your collection. We will keep records for you of which number(s) are held for you, and notify you early when the ornaments are ready for purchase. Contact information stored for annual ornaments will not be used for other marketing campaigns without your express permission.

Custom Shop 45 Years Of Expertise
Report
The word custom comes into play when we can't find what we want or need in the mainstream offering. Over the past 45 years Aitkens Pewter has realized literally thousands of projects from what began as a conversation about a need or a vague idea - often a napkin sketch.
There is a perception that "custom" is synonymous with "expensive", but this isn't necessarily the case with Aitkens because so much of our work is custom that over the years we have optimized a very clear and deliberate process.We will be glad to discuss cost and timelines with you before we begin work on your project.
