Pretty play of light- pewter has such a nice and soft shine to it the light plays on it really well.

Perfect for vegetables. We had something similar when I was a child, EPNS aka electro plated nickel silver. In fact they are now part of our batterie de cuisine...and bring back happy childhood memories.

It looks like a great metal to work with - especially in B&W.

Had to look of the name, but it's a wonderful bowl

@ziggy77 Thank you Jo. The design is probably based on early American pewterware.
@olivetreeann You're right. I prefer the pewter to the silver for decorative food service.
@s4sayer You know, I don't know that I've ever actually put any food in it. I should.
@pyrrhula Thank you.
@kwind Thanks Kim
@jamibann Thank you Issi.
@craftymeg Thank you Margaret.
@mandygravil Thanks Mandy. I need to shoot my pewter more often. I have several other pieces.
@hajeka Thank you Henk-Jan. I grew up in Pennsylvania which is one of the older states in the USA. This is a replica of early American dinnerware. I like the heft of it compared with silver bowls and other pieces.

It's very shiny! Polish it often?

@will_wooderson No. It's the finish it has. It's actually not the same kind of shine as silver has. It's more subdued. I did wash it for the photo, though.
