Pewterer’s Guild

http://pewterersguild.org/

The Pewterer's Guild was established in AS XXXIX.  Members teach, learn and practice period

techniques of carving and pewter casting.  The Pewterer’s guild organizes classes, and

encourages discussion.  The guild serves both the Barony and the Kingdom in making site

tokens or personal badges for various events, offices and branches.

As guilds go, the Pewterer’s guild is somewhat informal.  Although many core Guild events

happen within Madrone and many projects are closely related to Madrone events, the

Pewterer’s guild has no official charter from either Madrone or An Tir.  Participation with

the guild is open to anyone who has interest, regardless of geography.

To learn more about upcoming Pewterers guild activities, sign up for the e-mail discussion list.
