About Glover & Smith

We have been designing and making our lead-free pewter products since 1994. Great care is taken to use the highest standards of craftsmanship combined with the highest quality pewter, and simple, low energy making techniques mean each piece has a very low carbon footprint. Lead-free pewter is an eco-friendly, non-tarnishing, recyclable metal, safe to use with food, allergen friendly and easy to care for. Our 95% tin Pewter is the fourth most expensive metal in common use after platinum, gold and silver. The family run company was started by designers Ed Glover BA (Hons) UCA Farnham and Judi Glover BA (Hons) Manchester Met who brought their previous expertise in the art world to produce beautiful and contemporary tableware and gifts. Ed Glover is a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Pewterers and Glover and Smith are members of The Association of British Pewter Craftsmen and most of our designs carry the quality marks of the Association. We currently supply over 100 UK retailers. Read their story
