1 Pint Lidded William and Mary Pewter Tankard

Raise a glass to a tankard built for the study rather than the pub. The 1 Pint Lidded William and Mary Pewter Tankard is hand cast from antique bronze moulds and holds a full pint under its lid.

Hand cast in some of the finest British pewter at our Birmingham pewter workshop, using antique bronze moulds, then turned on a lathe and polished by hand, this is one of the most prestigious tankards we make. The body holds a full pint and weighs around 500g. The smooth surfaces take engraving beautifully, which is why it is bought for retirements, milestone birthdays and best men who went above and beyond.

The design comes from the late seventeenth century, the reign that gave Britain the Bank of England and the Bill of Rights. The hinged, domed lid with its thumbpiece is the signature of the period: press, lift, drink. Every one is individually touch marked with the A. E. Williams stamp and arrives in an A. E. Williams gift box, ready for weddings, anniversaries and retirements.

A Pewter Maker picking up an Antique Mould

A E Williams (Est 1779) Ltd is one of Britain's oldest pewter makers, still run by the family that founded it nearly 250 years ago. 


The story began when Thomas Williams started a small workshop making flatware and dishes from his home on the Welsh border, and from there the craft passed down through eight generations of the same family, all the way to Rebecca Johnson, who joined the business in 2015. 


Today we're based at our workshop in Digbeth, Birmingham, where we've been since the early 1970s.

OUR STORY
Pouring molten pewter into a bronze mould

We work from a collection of over 1,500 antique bronze moulds, some of which are centuries old. Many were made by hand long before machine tooling existed, and we still use them today, alongside moulds and skills of our own, to produce pieces with the kind of character that mass production simply can't replicate.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

At A E Williams, the materials we work with have been chosen over nearly 250 years of making things properly. Pewter sits at the heart of everything we do, but we also work with slate, glass, leather, and wood — each selected because it brings something the others can't: a different feel, a different occasion, a different kind of beauty.

Whatever you're looking for, every material we use is chosen to last, and to look better for it.
