Accent Gold for SilverTM Accent your jewelry settings with 24K gold!  Accent Gold for SilverTM, or AGS, is 24K gold powder + dry medium that the artist mixes with water to create a paste that is applied to both fine and sterling silver jewelry.  After firing, the setting is polished by burnishing or tumbling to create a beautiful, lustrous pure gold finish.  Complete instructions for use are provided on our website

Accent SilverTM - Accent SilverTM contains silver powder and other components and is used to apply silver accents to bronze and copper jewelry.  It is mixed into a slip with water, applied to already-fired jewelry articles, air dried and then fired at a low temperature to create rich silver layers that can be polished or finished as desired.  Complete instructions for use are provided on our website.

Accent Purple GoldTM - This is a most unusual material with which to add vibrant purple color to your settings.  Accent Purple GoldTM, or APG, is a solid 18K gold alloy that is royal purple in color.  It is attached as reflective flakes to silver settings either with a powdered glass enamel that fires at relatively low temperature, or with resins that cure at room temperature, to give a drusy look.  Complete instructions for attachment are provided on our website.

Accent Blue GoldTM -    This novel material provides a means for adding a beautiful soft blue hue to your jewelry.  Accent Blue GoldTM, or ABG, is solid 11K gold with a pale blue color.  It is attached as sparkling flakes with room temperature resins to create a novel drusy appearance, similar to APG.  Complete instructions for attachment are provided on our website.

Mineral Accents – Mineral Accents are offered by JMI as yet another means for adding color and unusual effects to jewelry settings.  They are made from natural minerals such as rainbow hematite, specular hematite, and apatite, and also from cubic zirconia of various colors.  They are sold as particles, or flakes, for attaching to jewelry in champleve’ fashion to provide a reflective, custom drusy appearance.  Complete instructions for attachment are provided on our website.

Accent Natural Gold  – JMI sells natural gold nuggets and flakes for adding an exciting gold look to your jewelry settings.  This gold comes from the gold fields of Alaska, and the purity is whatever nature provides, which is typically about 21K to 22k.  Attachment can be accomplished by soldering, using a glass enamel, or with room temperature resins.
