We learned about how pewter is made and tried our hands at part of the process! The artisans in the shop demonstrated the more technical parts and answered questions. It was a very relaxing and yet fun little workshop! My husband had been a skeptic, but really enjoyed it too!
Spent an awesome afternoon learning about pewter and how it is made. Part of the tour is having a hands on experience of tracing a mold and cleaning up the final product. Thanks Hailey, Hanna, and Taz for creating a memorable experience!
Great! At Amos Pewter we participate in the workshop and know the process of producing a jewel. I recommend this tour.
It was fun to see Luke melt the pewter and tell us how the figures are molded and cast. We were stopping by Halifax on a cruise ship. The people at the store were very nice.
This was a great experience! The workshop/tour was personalized and well priced. The staff was personable and helpful. We learned a lot and had a great time!
Fun activity for the whole family. Our guide was great and full of information! Very interesting to see how the pieces are made.
This is a wonderful experience for a family. All the people in the shop were terrific. They obviously love working there.
