Robert Bonynge was an 18th century Boston pewterer whose working dates were 1731-63. Surviving examples of this man’s pewter are rare. Today, 18th century American mugs with fishtail terminal handles which exist are as scarce as hen’s teeth.

We would like to thank our friend Wayne Hilt of Hilt Pewter for his help in creating this handle pattern from an original example. We love the look and feel of this mug and are pleased to honor one of America’s earliest pewterers.
