What is Polymer Clay?
Polymer clay is a versatile art medium that is used by a variety of hobbyists and professional artists.
Despite it's name, it is a man-made material, not natural clay. It's contains colouring agent and fillers in a polyvinyl base.
Polymer clay is sold in blocks which can be carved, moulded or pressed then cured in an oven to become a permanent piece of art.

Polymer clay is especially popular in jewellery design because of it's impressive versatility. It's can be used to mimic the look of stone, glass, wood and precious metals. It can also be sculpted to create delicate flowers, charms and beads.
Most importantly, the finished pieces are extremely lightweight, making them comfortable for the wearer.
