Brighter Ideas in Silver: NEW REFLECTIONS SILVER Collection!

Tuesday, September 14th, 2010

—————————

UPDATE: Starting the 15th of March until the 31st of March 2011 you can try Reflections Silver Wire and Sheet for the same price as Standard Silver*. Click here to learn more about this promotion and start browsing through our fabulous range of  fire scale, tarnish- resistant silver.  Still looking for reasons? Keep reading and find out why we’re all so enthusiastic about Reflections Silver.

————————–

Today we have launched the NEW REFLECTIONS SILVER COLLECTION!! You might have seen it on our website, but I wanted to give you some more information on this great new alloy!

We have over 100 (117 to be more precise) products including: Reflections Sheet, Reflections Wire, Reflections Finished and Loose Chain.

Here are a few reasons why I think you should try Reflections:

  • It has enhanced tarnish (the discolouration of metallic surfaces)  and fire-scale (dark coloured copper oxide – forms when sterling silver is heated in the air) resistance when compared to standard silver
  • It is age harden-able up to 90-110 Hv
  • It can be easily processed using standard existing jewellery manufacturing processes
  • It has 925 purity
  • It is excellent for stamping, drawing, spinning and rolling.

However, there are several processes that you should pay attention to when working with Reflections alloy: soldering should be done in a darkened area, test first when hot enamelling and do not use for fusing (although it is possible to produce a weak fuse joint). When remelting use at least 50% fresh 50% scrap mix.

If the new collection caught your eye,you can click here to download a PDF copy of the Reflections mini catalogue or altenatively go here and order a FREE brochure! It is all free, you might as well have a look! We have also added a Reflections Technical Centre to our Knowledge Base and we hope this will answer some of your questions regarding the new collection.

Are you already thinking of your first art piece you could design with reflections? Do you need more details to convince yourself? – if so, do not hesitate to call or email us:

Creative Freedom with NEW Art Clay Silver 650

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

If you’d like to make a comment about this article, or post a question please click here


We’ve all been fans of silver clay since we launched our range of Precious Metal Clay (PMC) last year, but since this launch we’ve been inundated for requests for Art Clay.
We’re now pleased to say that Cooksongold is stocking both Art Clay Silver 650, alongside Precious Metal Clay (PMC).


So what is ART CLAY? Art Clay is a precious metal clay which looks and feels like ordinary sculpting or porcelain clay with fine particles of pure silver mixed with a
non-toxic organic binder. The binder burns out during firing, leaving a pure silver item. It is an amazing material which gives the artist the freedom to create an object in clay, which when fired results in a pure, fine silver piece. The skill set required is more that of a model maker/sculptor/designer than those normally associated with a professional jeweller.


This Art Clay is known as Silver 650, simply because it can be fired at 650°C.
In fact at this low temperature it can be fired with sterling silver, dichroic glass and natural stones. This 650 version of Art Clay is slightly brighter than other clays. It shrinks by around 8% to 9%. Fire at 650°C for 30 minutes or 780°C for five minutes. Only use the higher temperature if the piece does not include sterling silver or glass. The object must be dry before firing.


Our Art Clay range includes :

Art Clay – the main product used for creating your piece.

Art Clay Slow Dry Clay – ideal for intricate modelling,

 Art Clay Paste – for gluing parts together and repair work & for texturing

 Art Clay Syringe – used for fine decoration

 Art Clay Paper – great for folding or embellishment

 Silver Oil Paste – used after firing to repair cracks or glue fired pieces together


If you are new to Art Clay why not take a look at our Art Clay Starter kit which includes clay, DVD and a 12 page instruction book plus a selection of essential tools all for only £36.95!
