The Leddell Chalice is an adaptation of an 18th century chalice made by Joseph Leddell, Sr. of New York City, circa 1740s. The original is taller, with an unusually large cup. We scaled the cup down somewhat and the proportions now seem right.

I’m pretty sure my father’s inspiration for this project was seeing a photo of an original example from the New Haven Colony Historical Society which is engraved on the cup with the words, “Drink ye All Of This” and dated 1744!

The R. Gibson Chalice was my dad’s first chalice design. He was a Congregational Minister as well as a pewterer, so this piece had a special place in his heart.

As a result of his connection to the United Church of Christ, his chalices were presented, from time to time, to various church leaders in sister churches on other continents. This is truly a beautiful chalice.

The J. Gibson Chalice is an original design. At nearly 9″ in height, it’s the tallest chalice I make.

It shares the same base and shaft of the Dunham Candlestick, and the cup is from the Jumbo Tumbler. Pewterers in the 18th and 19th century mixed and matched parts too!

Each one of our chalices has a rich and gleaming finish.
