English Pewter Company Sheffield has long had a tradition and industry based on metalwork, silverwork and cutlery. In 1977 Alan and Robert Shaw set up the English Pewter Company. With a commitment to quality, service and price they soon became the UK's largest manufacturer of quality pewter giftware.

Pewter Pewter, an easily worked alloy, has been in use in Britain for near on 2000 years. Pewter remained a cottage industry until 1770 when a new pewter alloy which used Antimony and Copper instead of Lead was developed in Sheffield, it became known as Britannia metal and was capable of being given a bright polish.

Hip Flask Pewter is the fourth most precious metal in common usage, and sometimes the best way to display the beauty of the material is in a stylish, elegant and understated manner, as is beautifully demonstrated by this pewter hip flask. Engraved in the top corner is the commemorative date of 1914, underneath is a space available for your own personal message engraved into the flask. The gorgeous gift will not rust or tarnish over time and really is the perfect example of beautiful design and craftsmanship coming together and is also supplied with a cream and black presentation box and funnel.
