Create unique items of jewellery in this amazing medium. Art Clay Silver is a new way of working with metal. It consists of minute particles of silver dust held in a binder which can be sculpted just like clay. Once dried out and fired, it fuses together to produce hallmark quality silver.
1 Day Workshop
Learn various techniques including how to manipulate the clay, add texture, set fireable stones in 3 different ways, create detail, add colour and produce a handmade bail for your chain.
A small kiln will be available in the studio. Lori will demonstrate how to fire your pieces and offer advice on further projects to continue at home.
Suitable for both beginners and those with some jewellery or silver clay (PMC) experience.
“Many thanks for an inspiring weekend, spent in the company of enthusiastic people in such delightful surroundings.” G.J (Staffordshire)
