PMC is a really useful new tool for any jeweller. At first glance metal clay looks expensive compared to sterling but there are many advantages which can actually save you time and money. Here are just a few key reasons why you should consider learning about this new material:-
- It is quick, easy to work with and can be fired with any jeweller’s torch. No special tools are required.
- PMC takes texture like a dream and if you don’t like the result simply do it again so no more struggling with the rolling mill or wasting sheet when experiments don’t work out.
- No fire stain or oxidising! This makes it perfect for Keum-Boo, box making, enamelling and more.
- Can be used instead of wax to produce a quick master for casting purposes.
- All metal clay waste is instantly re-usable.
Since we have a traditional metals background, the Mid Cornwall School of Jewellery is the best place for you to learn about PMC. We already speak your language.
Your tutor for this class will be Lisa Cain.
