Know before you buy
Like all high-quality pewter, this cup will develop a soft patina over time. You can maintain its polished look with a gentle metal polish, or allow it to age naturally for a more vintage aesthetic.
While the cup is designed for classic cocktails like the Mint Julep, pewter is a conductive metal. It will become very hot to the touch if filled with boiling liquids, so it is best reserved for cold or room-temperature drinks.
Machine engraving provides a clean, precise, and permanent mark on the pewter surface. Because the process physically etches the metal, please note that all personalized items are considered final sale and cannot be returned.
To preserve the finish, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the polished pewter surface.
Yes, the 16 oz capacity reflects the total volume when filled to the brim. For a comfortable pour that leaves room for ice or garnishes, we recommend filling it slightly below the maximum capacity.
