What is silver clay?

Silver clay is sold as a product called Art Clay Silver that is made of silver powder blended with organic binding agents and water to form the clay. Once the clay has been sculpted, it is left to harden. Then the design can be filed, sanded, engraved or drilled before it is fired with a butane torch, over the flame of a gas stove, or in a kiln. The binding agents and water content are burnt away, leaving the silver behind. To expose the silver, the item is polished with a stainless-steel brush, silver polish, or fine-grained sandpaper in the final step of the process.

How pure is it?

It is 99,9% pure, in comparison with sterling silver, for example, which is an alloy of metals containing 92,5% silver. It is slightly softer than sterling silver because it is not mixed with other metals to harden it.

Where does it come from?

Silver clay is made by a Japanese company. The silver is reclaimed from old photographic materials and computer circuit-board panels in an environmentally friendly manufacturing process.
