Joey,
The cast gold bottles were on my mind when I saw this, although I did not think it solid gold.  But because the metal was cast in the form of very common resin bottles, it caught my eye.

Why the Pewter ?  No idea except because it is so soft, maybe it is easier to work with during the casting process ?

Tom,
Maybe you are on track Tom with the idea of experimenting.
