Learn how to create exquisite jewelry using metal clay, which has microscopic particles of silver or gold suspended in a pliable organic binder. Upon firing in a kiln, the binder burns away and the metal particles fuse into pure (0.999) silver or gold. Because it can be worked with the hands and simple tools, it represents a dramatic development in the handling of precious metals. Anyone can create jewelry and decorative objects with ease, without the hassle of soldering, hammering, and cutting. The remarkable versatility of metal clay is demonstrated in 28 projects, presented in 280 color illustrations. Author — Sherri Haab. Paperback. 144 pages. |
