Kimberly,

I don’t use steel boxes anymore. I fire all clays in a fiber blanket box. White Bronze just has a different firing schedule.

Hadar, Thank you for your devotion to metal clay we all benefit from your tireless experimentations.
I know that their are many silversmiths all over the world waiting to place our orders for white bronze.

Hadar, I know I have said it before, but I think you are the quintessential Wonder Woman. How you find time for all this product development, your teaching schedule (home & abroad)and consistent & informative blogging never ceases to amaze and bless us all! I may have to re-think going to Purdue and come out there to study with you instead. Seriously!

Okay, you must never sleep! Or you’ve been cloned and there are two or three of you working 20 hours a day!! Incredible, Hadar! Thank you so much for your wonderful and generous contributions to the ever-exciting field of metal clay!!

You are an amazing woman Hadar and so giving. Thank you so much for all you do and share with us with the metal clay. I am just about to embark on trying bronze and copper so I have so much to learn. I am very excited to hopefully have the three metal colors if possible. With your help, determination and testing, it looks like that might be possible now. I actually like the sutle (softness) of the white bronze pieces you have done. Are you using the blanket box or the stainless steel box now? I couldn’t tell by the blog if you were only using the fiber box now or not. Thank you so much!

Lynda,

I used both “patina blue” from Sophisticated Finishes series and dye-oxide patinas.

Awesome Hadar! What patinas did you use on the first piece?

Jenny, Marty,

Not months, weeks, 2 to 3, hopefully sooner.
