Pewterware
Translation examples
There are shops for lacquerware, pewterware, silk and souvenirs of all kinds (the most ingenious of these are some amazing multi-layered balls, carved out of whole blocks of ivory, with the outer shell enclosing others of diminishing size).
Hay tiendas de objetos lacados, de objetos de peltre, de seda y de recuerdos de todo tipo (entre estos últimos, los más curiosos son unas sorprendentes esferas de varias capas, talladas a partir de un único bloque de marfil, bajo cuyo caparazón externo se esconden otros de tamaño cada vez más pequeño).
