Design Inspiration:
The brilliantly majestic butterfly emerges from its chrysalis ready to unfurl its delicate wings and flutter away in a celebration of life’s changes. To truly appreciate this extraordinary event, imagine what followed the colourful little caterpillar’s disappearance days earlier into the safety of its protective shell. Hanging from fine threads of silk under a small leaf or twig, it appeared to be dormant, resting and hidden away. But inside, a world of change was transpiring - its transformation into the magnificent winged butterfly. Now and then we all need to take a pause from life’s busyness, a chance to reflect, renew and reenergize, before reemerging with a refreshed sense of hope and a desire to reveal our beautiful colours to the world.

Butterfly 2021 Collector Ornament | Amos Pewter
The artisans at Amos Pewter are proud to be keepers of time-honoured pewter practices and methods while at the same time offering innovative designs inspired by nature and our beautiful coastal surroundings.
Amos Pewter's artisans carefully ladle hot, free-flowing molten pewter from the melting pot and capture it in a spinning mould formed from a wax sculpture carved in detail to mirror the original hand-drawn design. Once removed from the mould, each piece is carefully hand-finished in a process that ensures excellence in craftsmanship.
Amos Pewter was the first artisan shop in Nova Scotia to become a member of the international Economusee network whose mission is to showcase traditional trades and skills. Amos Pewter is crafted in picturesque Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia.
