This product is manufactured by Mitsubishi Materials Corporation and is available in fine silver (0.999%) and 24K gold. It is composed of microscopic metal particles, a non-toxic organic binder and water. It looks, feels and is shaped just like potter's clay but after firing all that is left is solid precious metal.
