Alchemy
Gothic Product Information:
All jewelry is cast and hand-made in fine English pewter, many with
additional high quality crystals and other components, hand-plated
or other two-tone finish and all come complete upon their nickel-free
chain or other necklace of appropriate length.
All
our gothic jewelry is made of fine English pewter and are made in
Sheffield, England by master craftsmen, who are members of The Worshipful
Company of Pewterers. One advantage of these pewter items,
is that they do not need regular polishing to maintain its gorgeous
appearance. Pewter jewelry does not tarnish like silver jewelry.
To keep your gothic jewelry bright and shiny, an occasional cleaning
with a quality proprietary metal polish will keep it looking brilliant.
The
metal used in the manufacture of all Alchemy's pewter products is
the highest grade, 92% tin alloy, (to BSS5140 standard), known as
"English Pewter". Some manufacturers misleadingly
use the term 'pewter' to describe alloys containing lead.
This results in inferior, more easily made products which are heavier,
softer and of a darker colour, and are much more prone to tarnishing
and disfigurement. This WILL NOT happen with Alchemy
Gothic jewelry.
