Description

PEWTER BRUSH TAIL POSSUM SMALL

Like most possums, this marsupial is nocturnal, feeding on fruit, buds and leaves and sleeping in hollow logs or tree branches during the day.  It has silvery-brown fur, bushy tail, big ears and prominent brown eyes and lives in open forest and woodlands.

PEWTER

Since earlier times, craftsmen have been extracting a small amount of a shiny precious metal (Tin) from a mass of rock, and then using that metal to manufacture articles to decorate their homes.

Tin is the fourth most valuable metal in general use, after Platinum, Gold and Silver, and has been used to manufacture Pewter since those early times.

Modern Pewter is an alloy that contains 92% Tin, 6% Antimony and 2% Copper.  The Antimony is used to harden the alloy, and the Copper is used to improve its workability.

To maintain the finish of your Pewter articles, wash in hot water using liquid soap and rinse in almost boiling water.  Immediately dry and polish with a soft cloth.

Proudly crafted in Australia by Aradon Pty Ltd. using Australian Tin.
