Using PMC Sterling in Your Bench Work, part 1

Nobody knows how to problem-solve like the bench jeweler. Take just about any jewelry-making challenge, and the bench jeweler has either the tool in the toolbox to beat it, or some clever technique to outsmart it.

Consider PMC Sterling™ one more tool—one more very strong tool—you can use in your metal forming and bench work.

Precious Metal Clay™ artists all over the world have been using PMC to make one-of-a-kind jewelry and sculpture designs. And the versatility of metal clay has encouraged innovation and discovery of different ways for jewelers, who don't typically work with PMC, to incorporate this effective tool and technique into their work.

The newest PMC form, PMC Sterling, has jewelers raving about the incredible strength of the piece in its fired, sterling silver form.
