Inside The Single
A detail that changes everything
Pick a set of eight or one statement stone. Lay the colours next to your sketch and see which one belongs.
Press the stone into the soft clay, table facing up, until its widest edge sits just below the surface. The clay will hold it.
Let the piece dry completely, then fire it as the clay and stone instructions say. The clay shrinks and closes around the stone.
Brush and polish until the silver shines. A spark of colour, held in solid 999 fine silver.
The reveal
Straight out of the fire, every piece is matte white. Brush, burnish and polish, and ten minutes later it's solid fine silver.
Made at home
Reviews of our Silver Clay Kit, which comes with one of these gemstone sets.
The shaping took me longer than I expected. I kept changing my mind about the design! Happy with how it turned out, though, and having the tools together made getting started much easier.
We chose the Duo kit for a weekend at home. Both made completely different pieces and enjoyed comparing them as we went. Definitely an activity to give yourself a whole afternoon for.
I hadn’t noticed that the gas for the torch wasn’t included, so I had to pick that up first. Once I got going, I really enjoyed it. The little tools were especially useful for tidying up the edges.
Made a small pendant with one of the stones. Getting the shape right took some patience, but polishing the finished piece was so satisfying. I already have an idea for what I’d make with another pouch of clay.
I’d never made jewellery before, so I kept my first ring pretty simple. It’s slightly uneven, but I actually like that about it. Seeing the silver appear when I brushed it was my favourite part.
A little know-how
A few things worth knowing before you choose your stones.
The names describe the colour palette. For the material and exact measurements, refer to the product specifications or contact us before choosing for a particular design.
Only fire a stone when its supplied specifications explicitly confirm compatibility with your clay, temperature and firing method. Otherwise, use a suitable setting after firing. Follow the instructions for both the clay and the stones.
The interactive view illustrates colour and a faceted cut. It is not a scan or a size reference. Colour can vary with lighting and your screen.
These are gemstone sets only. Silver clay, tools and firing equipment are not included. If you are starting from scratch, explore the Silver Clay Kit.
