Four pieces of pewter that belong together: pot, milk jug, sugar bowl, and round tray — a complete set of Italian pewter artistry, stamped with PELTRO 95°, the hallmark for high-purity pewter according to European tradition.
Material & Origin
The set is made of 95% pure pewter (Peltro) — a noble, lead-free material used in European table culture for centuries. All four pieces bear the same manufacturer's mark PELTRO 95° on the underside. The manufacturer is unknown; style and workmanship suggest Italian production from the 1950s–1970s.
Description of the Pieces
Pot, jug, and sugar bowl feature characteristic twisted melon ribs and curved baroque handles with delicate scroll ornamentation. The lids are crowned with small hazelnut knobs. The tray has a shaped, fan-like profiled rim and a hand-hammered surface on the back.
Dimensions
- Pot: H 15 cm · W 16 cm (incl. handle and spout)
- Milk jug: H 8 cm · W 12 cm (incl. handle)
- Sugar bowl: H 10 cm · W 14 cm (incl. both handles)
- Tray: Ø 26 cm · H 2.5 cm
Condition
Very good vintage condition. A small dent is visible on the spout of the pot. The tray shows two to three barely perceptible dents, which are almost invisible due to the hammered surface. Upon very close inspection, a few minimal dents can be found — normal signs of wear from a long life. All lids fit correctly. All parts belong together.
Use & Style Potential
As a decorative ensemble on a sideboard or serving cart, as a table service for special occasions, or as a stylistic object in a European-inspired interior. Price applies to the complete 4-piece set. Shipping from Austria, carefully packaged.
