Yes, tinsmiths existed in the Middle Ages, though they were not as prominent as other metalworkers like blacksmiths. They specialized in crafting items from tin, a lightweight and corrosion-resistant metal, which was often used for household goods such as pots, pans, and containers. Tinsmithing techniques evolved over time, and the craft became more recognized as demand for tinware grew. The role of tinsmiths contributed to the development of trade and craftsmanship during this period.
