What is metal clay?
Silver clay is very finely ground pure silver mixed with a non-toxic organic binder.
Straight out of the packet it looks and feels like putty and has a consistency much like uncooked pastry dough.
You can mould it, roll it, texture it and cut out shapes like cookie dough. When it’s completely dry, you can fire it in a kiln or with a handheld torch.
The organic binder burns off and the piece becomes solid hallmarkable fine (999) silver. It’s a brilliant material for beginners who want to make silver jewellery as you don’t need to learn traditional silversmithing skills like, piercing and soldering.
