Silver Clay Type - Art Clay Silver

A special manufacturing process forms our unique silver metal art clay. It is very durable and does not require any special treatment.

The micro silver metal particles are combined with organic binding agents and water. It becomes pure silver when you shape it like clay and fire it.

This product is low-fire clay that can be fired at 650ºC/1200ºF and is pure silver (99.9%) after firing.

You can create beautiful pieces of jewellery and bracelets. It is effortless to work with and fires quickly. You can fire the clay at low temperatures and store your products for years without losing their shine.

New formula Art Clay Silver shrinks less than clay fired at higher temperatures. The surface is smooth and shiny after firing.

You can shape the clay into any form. The process is quite simple. After you have shaped the clay, you simply fire using an open flame, like a gas stovetop or propane torch.

Clay Type compared to Paste Type Art Clay Silver

Clay Type

The clay type silver metal clay can be used the same way as regular clay, modelling and sculpting your piece into an artistic shape.

Moisture is essential to keep the clay flexible and workable.

When the clay cracks while you work, use a brush or a wet cloth to moisten it.

Paste Type

By default, Paste carries more water than the clay type and has the consistency of melted ice cream. Only transfer the amount you need from the jar to a small tray, and use more water to make the thickness you desire.

You can use the silver paste in various ways:

• Join two pieces of dry or wet clay together.
• Filling gaps for pits and cracks in drying pieces.
• Attach silver findings (screw eyes, tailbacks, brooch findings, etc.) to dried or wet clay pieces. The normal contraction of the clay bonds the findings during the firing process.
• When applied in separate layers onto organic forms such as leaves, dried flowers, paper-origami, etc., Paste type creates a perfect impression of the form.

It is important to get the correct size for your bracelet.

The size I need is EXACT snug wrist size. The extra need for a comfortable fit will be added. This varies for each design depending on the leathers used, so wrist size is all we need. 

If you would like a half size and there is no option, you can state this in the instructions section.

Your bracelet will be made from top quality leathers and a very precious metal - pure silver!

Care should be taken of your item to ensure longevity of your special item . This will include:

• No contact with water
• Minimising chemical contact with the silver, including deodorants, after shaves and perfume, sun lotions etc.

This will prevent tarnishing.

Polishing cloths are included to help keep the silver clean and shining. These jewellery polishing cloths are readily available.
