The Art and Design of Metal Clay Jewelry 2008 is a feast for your eyes every month of the year. It features fine silver jewelry from some of today's most innovative jewelry artists. Each page beautifully illustrates what can be done with this revolutionary new material called Metal Clay, which is in essence a moldable precious metal of pure silver or gold. It is then transformed into jewelry that is studded with gems, precious stones, and pearls and sculpted into true art. Each page gives the reader insights to the individual artist's world either through the images in the jewelry or commentary aside the photograph. Additionally, throughout the months you will find important dates of interest such as jewelry conferences and competition deadlines of particular interest to the metal clay artist. This calendar is a must have for jewelry lovers and makers alike.

Here is a preview of the pages
