Why Choose a Personalised Tin Gift for your 10th Wedding Anniversary?


A personalised tin anniversary gift is a special way to celebrate 10 years together with something that feels truly personal and unique.

Tin has long been the traditional gift for a 10th wedding anniversary, symbolising the strength and resilience built through a decade of marriage.

At Vision Arts Tin, our gifts are inspired by Cornwall’s history as the heart of tin mining, making them a fitting way to honour this tradition. Each piece is handcrafted and personalised with names, dates, or special words to create a bespoke keepsake that tells your story and can be treasured for years to come.





Handmade & Personalised in our Cornish Workshop

Every personalised piece we create is handmade in our family run Cornwall workshop, drawing on over 15 years of experience working with tin. Because each item is made entirely by hand, no two pieces are ever exactly the same, giving every gift its own character and story.

Unlike mass-produced anniversary gifts, we cast our metal using traditional methods, shape each design ourselves, and hand polish every piece to create a finish that feels personal, unique, and made to last.

All of our designs are created in house, which means we can personalise your piece with names, dates, meaningful wording, or bespoke details that make it truly one of a kind. We’re also always happy to adapt designs to help create something even more personal to you and your relationship.

With over 750 happy customer reviews, Vision Arts Tin has built a reputation for creating thoughtful personalised tin anniversary gifts that help people celebrate important moments in a lasting and genuine way.

When you choose one of our pieces, you’re not simply buying a gift, you’re choosing a handcrafted keepsake made with care, experience, and a real connection to Cornwall’s tin heritage.

Every piece begins in our Cornwall workshop, where molten tin is cast, shaped, and carefully finished by hand.

These videos provide an insight into the skills and processes we use to create our handcrafted pieces

How Our Tin Anniversary Gifts Are Made

It all starts right here… The melting pot is heated to around 270 degrees to enable the metal to melt. A vulcanised rubber mould is then placed inside the machine, which is then switched on, and set to spin between 400-700 RPM, depending on the size of the mould and castings. The melted metal is then ladled into the moulds via a small opening in the centre of the machine lid. The casting machine then spins rapidly for around 45 seconds before it comes to a halt. Then after a few moments, using a (gloved!) hand, the mould can be removed from the machine and opened. Inside are the solid castings, ready for the next stage of the journey

Techniques used to create our tin gifts

We use a number of polishing methods, depending on the size and use of the item in question. An intial fettle to clean up any edges will take place using a belt linisher. Next, a scotchbrite wheel with a course abrasive compound removes any lingering casting residue and results in a uniform surface with a satin finish. Finally, to obtain a stunningly high shine, we use a polishing compound with an open stitch swansdown mop. Once the last machine polish has taken place, every piece receives a hand polish using a blue silver cloth to remove any polishing compound and to check for faults or imperfections.
