Mokume Gane is a Japanese metalworking technique in which thin layers of metal are fused together and manipulated to create patterns that resemble the grain of wood. Mokume Gane in Japanese means “wood-eye metal.” Polymer clay artists have adapted this technique to our medium. This is just one of the many ways mokume gane can be used with polymer clay.
