SUMMARY:Silver Metal Clay Pendant with Cabochon $100
DESCRIPTION:Beginners will make a sterling silver clay pendant\, similar to the image above\, featuring 2 heart shapes\, 2 textures\, 1-2 molded decorations\, and a fired-in cup bezel for setting a cabochon. *Another shape can be subbed such as a circle\, teardrop\, oval\, square\, etc. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe image above shows an example for advanced students. Advanced clay artists will create a similar pendant with 2 contrasting slabs\, one with a low to high relief\, the other smooth and polished to a high shine. Slab shapes can be from templates or made by hand. Your personal choice of cabochon will be set with an attached fine silver bezel that will be filled with investment before firing. \n\n\n\nTypically\, pieces from Saturday classes are fired the following Tuesday. An informal day for finish work can be arranged; it is not required because class instructions will have the information you will need to finish your pendant at home. \n\n\n\nPlease Read: The class fee shown above does not include the metal clay or any other supplies. You will be charged for the metal clay the day of the class. All materials and tools for classes must be purchased at Beadoholique Bead Shop. This allows us to continue providing you with quality classes. \n\n\n\nMaterials and Supply list: Those who have completed prerequisite classes are expected to bring whatever extra materials\, supplies and tools they need to complete the piece to the pre-fire stage.
