Pewter Knight "Defender of Faith" – Crusader with Axe & Shield
The Charm of Pewter Alloy
The statue is cast in pewter, a traditional hard alloy of tin, antimony, and copper. This material is sought after by collectors for its typical matte silvery sheen, pleasant weight, and ability to hold even the smallest details, such as the links of the chainmail or rivets on the helm. The figurine is hand-painted – the silver base is complemented by gold accents on the weapons, garment hems, and crosses, adding a touch of nobility.

Caring for Your Pewter Statue
Pewter is a durable material that does not corrode, but it deserves care:
- Cleaning: Remove dust with a soft brush. To restore shine, simply polish with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use chemical solvents.
- Handling: Be careful with thinner parts, like the axe handle. Tin is softer than steel and can bend if dropped or pressured.
- Placement: Do not expose to direct sources of high heat.
