Since we started in 1979 all the jewellery and giftware has been handmade in my workshop in Glynneath, Wales. Many of the products are inspired by the history of Wales, its legends, ancient artwork and landscape.
From the creation of the original sculpture through to the finished article involves many processes. Making the original sculpture, castings of intricate detail, fettling to remove burrs, linishing, applying relief to highlight form and texture, applying acid etching, using enamel paints, soldering, making vulcanised moulds, satin finishing and polishing.
All designs are made using modern pewter, which conforms to British Standard 5140 and is guaranteed lead and nickel free.
Through my jewellery I am not only re-creating the past but continuing a living art, created by modern craftspeople for the people of today.
What is pewter
Pewter is one of the most valuable precious metals in common use today. Fine pewter is an alloy of 92% tin with copper and antimony added to strengthen and enhance casting. It can be highly polished or buffed to a satin finish.
It is the 4th most valuable metal in common use after platinum, gold and silver. As pewter ages it takes on a soft, even patina which is very pleasing to the eye.
Tin is a plentiful, non-toxic resource and Tin mining has little or no impact on the environment.
All Celtic Seren designs are made using the finest British pewter, which conforms to British Standard 5140 and is guaranteed lead and nickel free.
To care for your Celtic Seren pewter
Our products can retain their finish for years but can be cleaned easily.
Wash the article in warm soapy water and dry with a soft cloth.
Alternatively buffing with a virtually dry cloth with the smallest amount of metal polish will bring back the shine.
