Precious Metal Clay

Precious metal clay is finely ground silver, gold, or other precious metal, that is bound together with a maleable substance that disintegrates when heated, allowing the powdered metal to be shaped, just like clay.

In other words, PMC is all the fun of crafting in clay, with the end result in pure silver (or bronze, or copper...). Yes, that's right, the "clay" is fired off to reveal your design in precious metal. There is so much you can do with it!

Have a look:

Cost $250 for a one-day workshop, including materials.
