Cernit

Cernit is a brand of polymer clay. Polymer clay is a modeling material made from a plastic polymer, typically polyvinyl chloride (PVC), plasticizers, and pigments. When baked in a conventional oven at a specific temperature, the clay hardens and becomes durable. Cernit clay is known for its smooth texture and wide range of colors, including opaque, translucent, and metallic finishes.

The clay can be used for various crafting purposes, such as jewelry making, sculpting, creating decorative items, and mixed media art. It is pliable and easy to work with before baking, allowing for intricate details and manipulation. After baking, Cernit can be sanded, drilled, painted, and varnished to achieve a desired finish. The brand is manufactured by the French company Perles & Co. Safety guidelines recommend using Cernit in a well-ventilated area and following the baking instructions carefully to ensure proper curing and avoid releasing fumes. It is important to note that polymer clay is not intended for consumption and should be kept away from young children.
