Join us in this PMC Jewelry Workshop!

PMC (Precious Metal Clay) is a specialized clay made from fine particles of metal (in this case silver), mixed with an organic binder and water. This allows it to be manipulated into various shapes and textures, similar to working with any clay. It is then fired in a ceramic kiln to burn out the organic material, leaving behind 99.9% pure sintered silver.

On day one artists will roll, texture, and form the precious metal clay into a pendant and a pair of earrings. When the clay is dry we will refine and finish the clay.

Day two will be spent polishing and putting a patina on your jewelry. There will also be a possibility to make more jewelry and set a cubic zirconia stone or dicroic cabachon.
