MATERIALS & PROCESS
♢ Solid fine sterling (100% recycled)
♢ The pendant was created in fine silver metal clay, which is made up of tiny recycled silver metal particles mixed with and organic clay like binder. It can be sculpted, molded, and formed however I want. For this design I have hand sculpted the bar shape and meticulously placed each barnacle in place. After the designs dries 100% into my kiln it goes for a two-part firing process. The clay reaches 1500℉ for about an hour and the organic hotsell binder burns completely away leaving a solid silver mini sculpture in its place.
