This is a good reference for anyone who would like to start making mixed metal jewelry. There is also a discussion on the concept of married metals, and an overview of other possible combinations of clays in a married metal design.<\/p>\n<p>The second part covers the combination of copper and silver and discusses the issues of firing these clays together. Two projects introduce the technique of mokume-gane in copper and silver. As it turns out, most projects can be done with White Bronze instead of silver, without compromising the look and strength of the pieces.<\/p>\n<p>The third part includes projects which combine copper, bronze, and silver as components. It covers textures, forms, movement, and mechanisms.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the project samples, the book includes over a hundred photos contributed to the second edition by metal clay artists. Thank you all for your wonderful work. The book would not be complete without you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The second, revised and expanded edition of my book Mixed Metal Jewelry from metal Clay is now available in the form of a CD.
