PHOTOS ARE PART OF THE DESCRIPTION PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS.
MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROX.
• HAND CRAFTED PEWTER MADE IN SHEFFIELD ENGLAND: This text explicitly states the material and origin of the item. Sheffield has a long history of metal craftsmanship, including pewterware.
• 6oz: This indicates the capacity of the item, which, combined with the form suggested by search results, points to a hip flask.
• "G" Mark and Logo: The letter "G" and the circular logo with initials inside are the maker's "touchmark" or manufacturer's mark.
o The circular mark is likely the official touchmark of the Association of British Pewter Craftsmen (ABPC), which often includes the Sheffield city symbol (two sheaves of arrows) and the Worshipful Company of Pewterers' seahorse mark.
o The prominent "G" is likely the specific manufacturer's identifier or a workman's mark used internally by one of the many Sheffield pewter companies.
