Silver clay is a mixture of 99.9% silver, water and a bonding agent. How does it work? You create your piece using the clay when it's wet, it has a polymer-like consistency. Once it dries, you file and sand it down before firing the piece to burn off excess water and the bonding solution. After this your piece will be fully hardened and ready for a final polish. Can I make more than one piece? For an added fee, you will have the option to make an extra piece on the day. Can I buy silver chain from you? Yes, we will have a selection of chains to choose from on the day. Do you offer gold plating? Yes, for an added fee. Lead time is up to 2 weeks. Show more
