When washing your pieces, remember that they should be rinsed thoroughly and towel dried to avoid water spots. Decorative pieces such as lamp bases, crosses, picture frames and others can be polished with a clean, soft cloth. Do not use household cleaners, as they may tarnish the piece. Do not use abrasive cleansers or sponges. If for any reason the surface of this product becomes dull or scratched over time, a good quality silver or brass polish may be used according to directions to revive its original appeal. With minimal attention, each pewter piece will provide years of service and enjoyment. Do not wash in a dishwasher, as cleaning and rinsing agents may damage the highly polished surface. You can use pewter every day, and with proper care, it will never dull and will make your table festive year round.

When you first receive your pewter pieces, polish it with regular cooking oil about 4 or 5 times, then wash it with warm water and dry with a towel. This will preserve the beauty of your item for a long time.  Avoid using cutting instruments on your pewter pieces.
