Description
This tamper was made exclusively for us, the LJ Peretti Co, by pewter smith Larry Blackett, handmade in the USA.
Out of a large collection of tampers from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century he is casting them and making a limited number reproduction’s that are exclusively available here at LJ Peretti Co. We will be bringing in 3 new tampers into the shop every few months or so.
This tamper is of an “Scottish Highlander.” It was made originally in 1845 to commemorate the 100th year of the battle of Culloden.
Tamper No.6 in this collection
On all of these tampers, the artisan, Blackett, purposely gave them an unpolished finish so they would accurately match the original.
