Description

A notable application of the metal is the making of the Oscar statuettes, which are solid, gold-plated Britannia metal. They are unlacquered and hand-cast which means that over time, the handles will acquire their own unique patina. In addition, the hand casting process will display slight variations, so two handles will be identical - adding to the country charm of the item. This Giara Handles range offers a touch of style with handcrafted pieces from semi-precious metals. Britannium is a pewter-based alloy that is favoured for its smooth surface and beautiful silver appearance. Available in a beautiful Britannium finish. Individually packed in hessian bags, complete with fixings. The Country Cupboard Knob by Giara of Italy. Britannium has a lustrous silver colour similar to pewter.
