Hobbit Key

Why tin ?

« The Edain brought with them many treasures of gold and silver, and gems also; but they did not find these things in Númenor ». Nor shall you find any of these things on my shop. I only use a lead-free alloy of tin made specifically for jewelry. The alloy I use is produced in France and made to European Standard EN611.

The qualities of pewter are unique and allow me to create intricate details necessary to turn my designs into actual artefacts. Just like the Noldorin master Mahtan who valued copper over gold, I value the design of my pieces above expensive materials.
