WHAT IS METAL CLAY?
Metal clay is REAL metal! It works like clay, but fires to metal. This clay-like medium used to make jewelry, beads, and small sculpture. It consists of microscopic particles of metals (such as silver, gold, bronze, copper or steel) mixed with an organic binder and water. Metal clay can be shaped like soft clay. After drying, it can be fired in a variety of ways including in a kiln, with a hand held, high temperature gas torch. The binder burns away, leaving the pure, sintered metal.
