Art Clay Silver – Pure 999 Precious Metal Clay
Create solid silver jewellery with Art Clay Silver, the world-renowned metal clay manufactured by Aida Chemical Industries Inc. in Japan.
Combining the effortless workability of traditional clay with fine precious metals, this amazing material allows jewelers, crafters, and hobbyists alike to sculpt silver pieces right at home.
Why Choose Art Clay Silver?
Art Clay Silver is formulated with microscopic particles of pure silver, a non-toxic organic binder, and pure water. This unique composition gives it an incredibly smooth texture, allowing you to easily roll it, mold it, stamp it, or texture it using standard stamps or texture mats.
- Easy to Shape & Modify: Work it like everyday clay. Once dry, your piece becomes stable enough to easily file, carve, drill, smooth out, or seamlessly join with other dry clay elements.
- Easy Firing: You don’t need an industrial setup. Art Clay Silver can be easily fired using a simple handheld torch or an electric jewelry kiln at temperatures as low as 650°C.
- 100% Real Fine Silver: During the firing process, the organic binder completely burns away. The result? A breathtaking, solid piece of 999 Fine Silver (99.9% pure) that is ready to wear or sell.
Finish It Your Way: From Matte White to High Polish
After firing, you give the piece the final look:
- High-Shine Luster: Use polishing pads or a burnisher to instantly reveal a mirror-like silver glow.
- Antique/Vintage Aesthetic: Apply a touch of liver of sulphur to oxidize the deep textures, creating beautiful high-contrast dark lines that make your details pop.
