Sketch it.
Draw your idea first: a ring, a charm, a little pendant. Mark the size, so every gram of clay has a place.

Soft clay. Real silver. Endless possibility. Shape your next personal piece with our 7 g silver clay refill.
Inside The Single
From possibility to something personal
Draw your idea first: a ring, a charm, a little pendant. Mark the size, so every gram of clay has a place.
Open the pouch and take out the clay: soft, fresh and ready to work. Seal what you don’t use straight back in.
Roll it out, press in a texture, cut your shape or wrap it round the mandrel. A drop of water keeps it smooth.
Let it dry, fire it, then brush and polish. The binder burns away and what stays is 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, made with this same clay.
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 your next creation.
That depends on your design, its thickness and its size. Start with a small charm or pendant design and plan the amount before shaping. The stated weight is the clay before firing, not the weight of the finished silver piece.
You need suitable tools for shaping, drying, firing and finishing. Follow the firing instructions supplied for your clay and the requirements of your design. If you are starting from scratch, explore our Silver Clay Kit.
Keep unused clay tightly sealed and protected from air to prevent it from drying out. Follow the care instructions supplied with your pouch.
