Queen's metal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Queen's metal is an alloy of nine parts[1] tin and one each of antimony, lead, and bismuth. It has an intermediate hardness between pewter and britannia metal. It was developed by English pewtersmiths in the 16th century;[2] the recipe was initially a secret and was reserved for pieces made for the English royal family.
