taking a shine to oven-safe “pewter”
Yes, my pewter obsession continues with a new line from Juliska, “‘Pewter’ Stoneware.” That’s right — Juliska’s “pewter” is actually stoneware with a hammered luster, so it can go from table to a 500-degree oven, the microwave, or even the freezer. A far cry from real pewter, which would melt at just 450 degrees, or old pewter, which was made with lead! While it looks great in the photo, I’m curious to see if in-store the “Pewter” Stoneware surface will be too shiny compared to the patina I adore in old pewter. A large platter is $92 and chargers are $66 each. — Sarah L.

The Pewter Stoneware from Juliska is fabulous and shiny (but i don’t think that is such a bad thing). Pairing the Pewter with Juliska’s Berry and Thread pattern creates an instant modernized, cutting-edge look to an otherwise classic table-set. My favorite piece in Pewter Stoneware is the ramekin. It can be the perfect end to a dinner party when you bring out individual desserts in the ramekin.
