Well this was a lonely unloved category wasn't it.

I've just started producing a range of cast pewter - casting stuff out of metal being what I do for a living - and a lot of it may be of interest to reenactors.

At present I'm still waiting for my new website to be finished but I'll get some pictures up here later in the week.

In stock I have large and small Celtic Crosses, torcs (twisted wire with ball end style), arrowhead pendant, Thors Hammer, triple moon with knotwork pendant, Viking coins for use as general necklace/earing/token stuff, denari earings (Hadrian & Trajan)and three different types of Medieval style buttons.

These will be augmented by some really great hand made glass beads all the way from West Virginia in a few months time.

Most items are $15 each with the buttons being 6 for $10.

Coming soon: Full fittings for Roman military belts are in the lets just do that again stage with some minor problems with the actual beltplates. Other period belt fittings, buckles etc are in the where the hell can I find some more of that modeling putty that can take the high temp process stage but should be on deck within a couple of weeks.

Anyone who has a deep abiding and possibly financial interest in these items is welcome to drop me a line.

Casting stuff in metal, eh...
Would you be able to do something like a mace head? Not in pewter obviously.

I can do things like mace heads and warhammers in aluminium if you like.

I've got three styles of Medieval buttons at the moment. Domed, pyramid and a round flat button with a roped edge. They're all approx 1.5 cm across. If you have a burning desire for a particular design I'll be working up new round of patterns next week so get your bid in now. I am market driven.

I would love some celtic patterned round clasps about 30 -40 or even 50mm across for capes & cloaks maybe even plain so I can carve them myself but etched or molded would be cool

Do you mean decorative belt studs Nathan?

In which case yes, they'll be in the next run along with various buckles and belt plates from Roman to Medieval.

Any pictures of what you're interested in are always helpful.

In the meantime some of the pendants and other stuff are on Zillion. http://www.zillion.co.nz/aff/1803/members/mailleman/items/

I am interested in seeing what you have for sale i.e. buttons and 14th C belt buckles. Will you bring anything along to NAAMA?
