Pewter was a useful alloyed metal produced and worked on Toril.[1]
Properties[]
Pewter typically weighed 454 pounds (206 kilograms) per 1 cubic foot (0.028 cubic meters).[2] It was mostly unaffected by the corrosion of salt water, but contact with iron while submerged caused it to dissolve.[3]
Usages[]
- Pewter was used to make steins, mugs, and tankards, a more expensive option than brass but cheaper than silver.[1][4]
- A pewter tuning fork could be used to plane shift to the Para-Elemental Plane of Ice.[5]
- Pewter golems were a kind of golem.[6]
- Dung-carters collected metal scraps from the street to trade to metalsmiths, selling pewter, copper, and brass for 4 cp per pound.[7]
History[]
Tasseldale had a high population of pewtersmiths and tinsmiths. Tin and other metals were imported from Sembia and Archendale, then the finished crafts were exported, often to Arabel.[8] The Tasselway Coster ran caravans that specialized in tin and pewter trade goods, among others.[9]
Velarstown Silver and Jewelry in Harrowdale traded in pewterware, gems, and other fine metalwork.[10]
Pewter goods were made in and exported from Saerloon in Sembia.[11]
