Aureus™ Bright Bronze Clay

Click here for Aureus Bright Bronze instructions Developed by Cindy Silas, Aureus Bright Bronze Clay is an excellent base metal clay medium for jewelry, crafts, sculpture and models. Offered in lump (wet) form, this clay results in a beautiful, bright bronze when fired. Economical, easy to form, fire and finish.  Kiln Fire: 2 Stage - Carbon RequiredShrinkage: 10-11% Made in the USA Greenware and Dry Construction In its greenware state, the clay is slightly flexible and carves easily. Air drying the unfired clay or greenware without heat will reduce the potential for warping as the clay dries. Once completely dry, the greenware should be handled with care as it can be fragile. It is much easier to sand and refine the greenware at this stage than to refine the metal once sintered. When joining pieces, create a paste slurry at the join with water, then compress both pieces together for 30 seconds. Put aside to dry completely. Metal clay must be completely dry before firing.
