Techniques in Argentium®: Clasps, Volume 5, DVD

Learn how to capture the amazing tarnish- and firescale-resistance of Argentium® Silver for your clasp designs in this comprehensive, easy-to-follow video. Follow detailed, close-up demonstrations as Ronda Coryell shows forming, hammering for hardness, fusing to fabricate and setting cabochons in creating clasps using Argentium. Clasp styles include S-hook, interlocking jump rings, lentil, oval box and alternative shapes. Made with a touch of germanium, Argentium® Silver presents a bright white color that is closer to fine silver than traditional sterling, yet is highly resistant to firescale and less likely to tarnish under most conditions. It welds flawlessly and is ideal for fusing techniques. All Argentium is made from reclaimed silver and its sources are guaranteed by Argentium International Ltd. Your customers will appreciate the value and convenience of brighter-white sterling silver designs that resist tarnishing and keep on shining.
