Learn how to make your own beautiful fine silver jewellery
With a silver clay workshop or course at Silver Clay Academy
What is silver clay?
Silver clay, also known as precious metal clay is a fantastic eco-friendly material.
​
Made from silver, recycled from various sources such as the medical and communication industries. The recycled silver is refined into tiny particles and mixed with an organic, non toxic binder.
​
This fabulous malleable material can then be shaped and sculpted and even used to capture real pieces of nature, using techniques that you will learn on a Silver Clay Academy Workshop.
​
When the clay is dried, it is then fired using either a special kiln, or a torch. during this process the binder is burned away leaving pure ( or Fine silver)
The piece is polished to leave a beautiful piece of jewellery for you to treasure forever.
​
To learn more and to make your very own piece of silver jewellery, why not come along to one of our workshops? They are from beginner level and have a number of dates to suit.
