silver or gold suspended in an
organic binder to create a pliable
material with a consistency similar
to modeling clay.

About the book:
Precious Metal Clay:
Creative Projects for the Beginner
Precious Metal Clay is a revolutionary new material
developed in Japan. It contains microscopic particles of
pure silver in a claylike substance. It can be rolled
like cookie dough, cut with a cookie cutter, molded by
hand or even thrown on a potters wheel. When fired the
binder fires away and you are left with pure silver.
This book
contains over 30 easy projects from jewelry to
embellished candles to decorated lampshades. There are
also great party and gift ideas. Along with step by step
projects, there is a section on finding your inspiration
and developing your sense of creativity.
We know of no one
that has tried PMC that has not loved it! The hardest
part is always thinking of an idea to try. While this
book will show you how to make many projects it will
also help guide you to develop your own designs and
projects.
The book is
written in a light, easy to read fashion. You'll find
yourself occasionally laughing as you read along. At the
end of the book you will find a resource section for
purchasing the PMC as well as places that will fire for
you if you don't have your own kiln. If you own a kiln
there are detailed instructions on how to fire the PMC.
This book
contains a foreword by Tim McCreight, well known author,
metalsmith, teacher and consultant for the manufacturer
of PMC.
