Product Description
10 gram Art Clay Silver Clay, this wonderful clay makes beautiful jewellery! Art Clay Silver Clay can be sculpted, shaped and fired!
Art Clay Silver has been around since 1995. Since its launch, there have been a few different types of Art Clay Silver. When Art Clay created this clay formula they picked the best parts from their most popular clays - easy moulding, slow drying, and a possible low firing temperature making it suitable for combining with glass and porcelain, and allowing torch and gas hob firings. We think this might just be the ideal silver clay!
Why use Art Clay Silver Clay?
- It has a better workability and a longer working time than previous Art Clay Silver products.
- Art Clay Silver can be hallmarked as fine silver (999) at any UK Assay Office.
- Shrinkage 8-9%.
- It retains and accepts moisture easier than the previous silver clay types, which means it is easier to keep supple and much easier to reconstitute if it dries.
- It has similar drying times (when applying heat).
- It carves and files easier in the dry stage than the previous formulas.
How to fire your metal clay:
- Fire with kiln, torch, or gas stove. Using a kiln, the recommended time and temperatures are 30 minutes at 650°C, up to only 5 minutes at 800°C.
Pack size: 1 x 10gm package.
Don't just listen to us - here is some feedback we've had from users:
- I attempted plenty of rolling out, cutting and then ‘scrunching’ up and re-rolling and didn’t observe any cracking, drying-out or the usual deterioration in the ‘condition’ of the clay that one would expect at that stage....very ‘user friendly’ for beginners who struggle with working fast enough to prevent the clay drying.
- The clay is definitely easy to manipulate if you are designing as you go. Mistakes and cracks are very easy to repair/fill with a wet brush and it goes smooth quickly and nicely.
- I bonded to pieces together beautifully, and only needed a little sanding. No problems and no minor surface edge cracking! I polished with the ‘sunshine’ cloth and was really amazed at the beautiful deep shine, it took me by surprise. The pieces also felt dense, and strong.
- With its ability to blend so well when pasted, this makes putting the 3D pieces together seamless. The clay seems to take longer to dry out which gives more time for creating a piece. The clay has a lovely soft smooth texture and works for much longer than the existing 650.
- It carved well. When dry, it feels nice and velvety, not chalky. Collected all my sandings, drilling dust and tiny dried bits and reconstituted them. They came together really easily.
