tinware

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'metal goods' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'swimming in water' is the wordplay.
'swimming' indicates anagramming the letters.
'in'+'water'='inwater'
'inwater' anagrammed gives 'TINWARE'.

Can you help me to learn more?
