Sterling Silver Clay - Art Clay Silver 950 - 50g + 10%

This type of silver clay can be shaped in the same way as ceramic clay. The processing steps are: modeling, drying, burning and polishing. (details here)

It thus contains a higher percentage of silver than Sterling 925, so the resulting alloy is much harder than fine silver (999). An essential advantage is that the ACS950 can be burned in the ceramic kiln, without the need to use activated carbon !!!

*According to the tests carried out in the Studio Artkimia this note is interpreted as follows: 1 = quite brittle or porous and 10 = flexible, dense, can be formed plastically (bent, hammered, perforated...) This grade refers to the solid metal, after firing at the appropriate temperature and time.
