Art Clay Silver Clay - 10gm - NEW FORMULA

I received this as a gift for Christmas and have since repurchased twice myself as this silver clay is very good quality. As a complete novice it can be tricky to work with on first try but works great once you’ve got the hang of it and make sure you’re not letting it dry out (which can happen quickly). When I’m sanding down my dried finished product before firing, I make sure to keep the dust/ shavings, which I’ve used to make silver paste for repairs, details and filling in cracks. It does feel quite expensive to be spending around £30 for such a small pieces of clay but I’ve mainly been making rings with this and can typically get around 3 rings out of a 10g pack depending on the size/ detail which is great value and the finished rings are incredibly good quality and super sturdy when formed and fired correctly :)

Love using silver clay. This is a brilliant brand, a little goes a long way. Easy to manipulate, I have made some really nice pieces with this clay.

Complete novice never used any like this before. Very simple good outcome considering i didn't read the instructions properly will be ordering again

Easy to use & gave good results. Would buy again.

Love this silver art clay - have completed a few little jewellery pieces which burnish up beautifully into white silver. Can be tricky and a little brittle before firing but worth persevering with.

This is the 3rd time I have purchased this product. It is easy to work with, it fires well, and the end product is excellent.

Such a brilliant product. Make Sure You know what you want to make- As you can end up with a lot of wastage and it’s a small amount. Can make One ring or 2 good size pendants

I have to say that for anyone being familiar with this type of Silver Clay that it does seem to be of good quality and is well packaged. For anyone wanting to explore this material, however, I would like to give a word of warning: The material is not easy to work with, it is not very flexible and you won't be able to make it less dry with the addition of water as other clays wood. In addition it is very prone to keep little smudges and finger prints so care must be taken to remove them on very tiny pieces. Finally, and probably the part that was most frustrating, when the clay is being burned away, the surface of the metal will be burned too, this means that it will not be silvery but white, as if it had not been burned. You will have to polish it to get the silver look, which can be very tedious and bothersome, particularly in little cracks and nooks.
