Piper Pewter
Overview
Piper Pewter specializes in lead-free pewter products such as Celtic and Scottish jewellery, kilt pins, letter openers, clan crests, bookmarks, Christmas ornaments, and other gift items. Each piece is skilfully cast and finished by hand in our workshop at Indian Brook.

Our jewellery designs include Celtic crosses, Celtic knots, flowers, sanddollars, birds, moose, fox, Scottish terriers, bagpipes, fiddles etc. Browse through our clan crests and discover a family name with a Scottish connection. Some of our Celtic knot designs are traditional while others have been uniquely created. Local artist Angus MacLeod designs our heritage collection of Celtic Christmas ornaments.
