It requires a precise two-stage kiln firing with carbon to achieve its signature bright bronze finish, featuring a controlled 10-11% shrinkage rate for predictable results. Economical and easy to work with, this clay elevates your creative projects with a stunning metallic sheen. ## Description Offered in lump (wet) form, this clay results in a beautiful, bright bronze when fired. Economical, easy to form, fire and finish. Made in the USA. Kiln Fire: 2 Stage - Carbon Required. Shrinkage: 10-11% Firing Aureus Bright Bronze Clay requires a two phase firing. The first Phase completely burns out the binder, which helps the work sinter properly in the second phase. Many kilns fire hotter or cooler than their digital read-outs state. It is a good idea to test your kiln for temperature accuracy. This can be done with a hand-held digital pyrometer. Phase 1 Firing Full ramp to 650°F/ 343° and hold for 30 minutes -Option 1 Arrange greenware on a mesh firing rack. Additional pieces can be stacked using more mesh firing racks separated with kiln posts. Raise the mesh firing rack(s) off the kiln floor with a few more kiln posts for air circulation. -Option 2 The greenware can be placed on top of 1” of activated carbon in a steel firing container. Do not add activated carbon on top of the greenware for phase 1 firing. Laying flat can create little indents because bronze gets soft while sintering. Best to lay flat pieces vertical in the carbon. Note | A slower phase 1 firing is needed for any piece that has areas that are 3mm (12 cards) thick or thicker. Ramp 300°F/ 149°C hour to 600°F/ 315°C and hold for 15 minutes. Phase 2 Firing Full ramp to 1400°F/ 760°C and hold for 2 hours Once the greenware has cooled enough to handle after the first firing phase, gently transfer the work to a kiln vessel, such as a steel firing container that has at least 1” of activated carbon spread on the bottom. Arrange the pieces with at least ½” of space between them. Cover all pieces with at least 1” of activated carbon. Additional work can be added in layers as long as there is 1” of activated carbon above and below each piece. Fire with a slotted lid or lid ajar. Do not cover firing container completely. ## Features - Made in the USA - Kiln Fire: 2 Stage - Carbon Required - Shrinkage: 10-11% ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B77TX2CK | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #64,194 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #294 in Pottery & Modeling Clays | | Brand Name | Cool Tools | | Color | Bright Bronze | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (60) | | Educational Objective | Creative Skill | | Included Components | clay | | Manufacturer | Cool Tools | | Material Type | Bronze | | Model Name | Aureus® Bright Bronze Clay | | Number of Items | 1 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Non-Toxic | | Recommended Uses For Product | Modeling | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Cool Tools - **Color:** Bright Bronze - **Educational Objective:** Creative Skill - **Included Components:** clay - **Material:** Bronze - **Model Name:** Aureus® Bright Bronze Clay - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Modeling - **Special Feature:** Non-Toxic ## Images ![AUREUS™ Bright Bronze Clay (50) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51AEAMlxxmL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Item Package Quantity** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - AUREUS™ Bright Bronze Clay (50) - Art Clay Silver - 20 grams - Aida Chemical Industry Art Clay Silver 0.4 oz (10 g) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/496554342-aureus-bright-bronze-clay-50](https://www.desertcart.at/products/496554342-aureus-bright-bronze-clay-50) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
