shown up with that solid gold cauldron he wanted to buy in Diagon 
Alley.  

Famous Harry Potter is too good for a mere pewter cauldron like 
everyone else.  He just has to stand out, and I'm taking more points 
for not following instructions.

Am I the only one that assumed some potions have to be brewed to 
cauldrons made of specific materials.  Basically, I thought that 
many potionc could be brewed in anything but that some had specific 
requirements.  Some of those with specific requirements are taught 
at Hogwarts and they require pewter.  That's why I think pewter was 
specifically written on the list.
