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.

AGS 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.


Accent Gold 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.

For most effects, 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.
