 How to achieve positive firing outcomes 

Prometheus Troy Bronze Clay is known for it's beautiful rose bronze colour and very low shrinkage rate.

Prometheus Troy Bronze Clay is a claylike material which turns into pure, solid bronze when fired in a kiln. It is a mixture of micron sized bronze powder, water and an organic binder. 

Prometheus Troy Bronze Clay can be formed by hand, rolled into a sheet or made into a rope. It can be moulded, textured and even turned on a potter's wheel. 

Prometheus® Troy Bronze Clay can be fired with most lab-created gemstones (cubic zirconia) pre-tested natural stones, glass, glass beads, ceramic and porcelain. 

When the clay is fired in a kiln, the organic binder evaporates and burns away. What remains is pure, solid bronze. 

If there is any fire scale left on a piece after firing, it can be placed in a pickle solution to remove it. The solid bronze piece can then be wire brushed and polished.

Create unique jewellery, ornaments, hollow ware, statutes, sculptures and many other decorative objects. 

Use your imagination and let your fingers do the rest!

Prometheus Troy Bronze Clay should be fired using a  two-stage firing.
