Accent Gold For Silver paint is used to apply 24 carat pure gold highlights, texture, or decoration, to fine-silver jewellery, including pieces made from Aida Art Clay silver clay or Mitsubishi PMC precious metal clay.

Accent Gold For Silver comes as two parts: a screw-top pot containing one gramme of 24 carat pure gold powder, and a dropper-bottle of non-toxic water-based medium.

AGS can be applied with a small brush or a shaped tool to fired silver clay. After drying, the piece is fired again to sinter the gold and bond it to the silver. After cooling, the gold can be burnished, or given a matte, textured, or lustre finish.

AccentGold is pure 24 carat gold, whereas Aida Art Clay gold clay paste and Mitsubishi Aura 22 are both 22 carat alloys: 91.7% gold and 8.3% silver.

Generally, AGS is easier to use and less wasteful than gold leaf, especially on contoured surfaces where gold leaf would probably tear. And it's thicker than an electro-plated layer.

The Kitiki Studio is the EU distributor for Accent Gold For Silver paint, made by Jewelry Material Innovations in the US. Full instructions are included with the product.

To learn more about AGS, and how to use it, transfer to Accent Gold, using the Accent Gold link above the menu bar at the top of the page.

If you're going to buy Accent Gold now, you'll probably need a fine sable brush: they're on the shop page. It's a good idea to keep a brush just for AGS so that, for example, you don't use a brush with tiny left-over particles of dry Art Clay still in the brush hairs.

If you want to make a solid gold piece, rather than just add a decoration, you need Art Clay gold clay. To learn more about Art Clay gold clay, go to Art Clay using the artclay link below the menu bar, then choose clays.

The Kitiki Studio has an easy-to-use comprehensive on-line shop: use the shop link below the menu bar at the top of the page. Alternatively, visit the Cherry Heaven Shop in Corfe Castle village.
