| PMC Pieces |
| Precious Metal Clay (PMC) is a new medium for me. I first used it at the Bead and Button Show in Milwaukee, Wisconsin last summer and fell in love with it. It is .999 Fine Silver (99.9 percent silver - sterling silver contains 92.5 percent silver) particles contained in a binder. It can be worked much like other clays in shaping. When fired in a kiln for a sufficient time period, the binder burns off leaving a fine silver piece. PMC has enabled me to make pieces which would otherwise not be possible without metal casting supplies. I am currently working toward certification in PMC which will enable me to teach PMC skills to others. Please see below for photos of some of my PMC projects. I will be adding to this list as I work with it more. For more information on PMC, please visit the PMC Guild. |
