Metal Clay allows you to create unique pieces of fine silver jewelry. It consists of microscopic particles of silver and gold suspended in an organic binder to create a pliable material with a consistency similar to modeling clay. After firing, what remains can be hallmarked as .999 silver or gold.
In this class, students will learn how to construct a pendant, bracelet, & earrings. Supplies included: large metal clay packet, fine silver wire, sterling silver findings, use of instructor's tools, textures, finishing supplies, and kiln. Students can expect to make 15-20 pieces of jewelry depending on the individual sizes.
For some ideas of what you can make, please look in Marissa's Jewelry Collection page....but to really appreciate the beauty of these pieces, please stop by the store to see and feel for yourself!
