The Creative Process Behind Silver and Strands’ Jewelry

Crafting jewelry with art clay silver requires skill, patience, and creativity. At Silver and Strands, our artisans follow a meticulous process to ensure each piece is both stunning and durable:

1. Design Concept – We begin by sketching designs inspired by nature, culture, or modern fashion.

2. Shaping the Clay – The art clay silver is rolled, molded, or carved by hand to create the desired form.

3. Drying – The piece is carefully airdried to remove moisture before firing.

4. Firing – Using a kiln or torch, the clay is heated to high temperatures, transforming it into pure silver.

5. Polishing and Finishing – The final piece is polished to a radiant shine and, in some cases, embellished with gemstones, beads, or additional textures.

This process allows for an extraordinary level of creativity while ensuring quality craftsmanship.

Caring for Your Art Clay Silver Jewelry

While art clay silver jewelry is durable and made of pure silver, it still requires care to maintain its shine and beauty. Here are some tips:

• Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a soft jewelry pouch.

• Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals such as perfumes, cleaning agents, or chlorinated water.

• Clean gently with a soft polishing cloth to maintain its shine.

• For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly.
