Structural Metal Clay is a book for anyone interested in making serious
work from fine silver metal clay. It might sound expensive at
$48, but it's less than half the price of a half day class, and
shows you clearly and concisely how to make a whole series of
basic jewelry components, 3-D forms, and introduces concepts
like resin fills and fine silver fusing.
Make clasps, rings, mechanisms, imbedded rivets, bails,
and beautiful handmade chain, all in pure fine silver. Learn
the reasons for full annealing and proper firing, how to do patina,
and how to make jewelry in this beautiful metal that stands the
test of time.
This book also includes a sampling of simple metalsmithing techniques
that anyone can master, with or without a professional setup,
and shows you how to work safely and cleanly in your home studio.
$48
136 pages, full color, with a sturdy spiral
