New brands of silver clay
In the past few years, the variety of silver clay brands has increased significantly. The most popular brands are still PMC and Art Clay but these new silver clay brands have a number of interesting properties. It is worth exploring them to see if you can incorporate them in your work.
Firing
You will also find that many of them are cheaper than the top two brands. This is mainly due to the fact that the manufacturers of these new silver clays are smaller businesses.
Shrinkage
Some of these new silver clays cannot be torch fired so check carefully before you buy to make sure they meet your requirements. Some also have larger shrinkage than the top two brands. This can be an advantage as you can work at a good size in the wet and dry stages but then you get all the detail in a smaller end product. It is also useful for moulding and making smaller items. Make a piece using your mould, fire it and then mould it again. This gives you a progressively smaller end result.
