What is Fimo polymer clay?
Fimo polymer clay (Фимо полимерна глина — Fimo polimerna glina) is a PVC-based modelling clay sold in blocks — soft and pliable at room temperature, shaped by hand or with tools, and permanently hardened by baking in a domestic oven at low temperature (approximately 110–130°C for 15–30 minutes depending on thickness). "Fimo" is the brand name of the most widely known polymer clay product, produced by Staedtler — though the term *фимо (fimo)* has become a generic term in Bulgarian craft vocabulary for all polymer clay regardless of brand. Other major brands include Sculpey and Premo, all based on the same PVC-in-plasticiser chemistry and baked at similar temperatures. Polymer clay is available in a very wide colour range — solid opaque colours, transparent, metallic, pearlescent, glow-in-the-dark, and stone-effect varieties — and colours can be mixed by kneading two or more clay colours together to produce custom shades and effects. Once baked, polymer clay is hard, durable, and lightweight — it can be sanded, drilled, painted, varnished, and carved after curing. Unlike air-dry clay (which hardens by water evaporation and cannot be re-softened), polymer clay remains workable indefinitely until heat is applied, and partially worked clay can be stored and returned to later. This is the raw material from which Fimo pendants and Fimo beads are made; if you prefer pre-made finished pieces, see those sections.
What can polymer clay be used to make?
Polymer clay is one of the most versatile craft materials available — the only limit is the size that can be baked in a domestic oven. In jewellery making, polymer clay is used to hand-form beads (rolled into spheres, shaped, textured), pendants (sculpted, impressed, or moulded), earring drops, and other jewellery components. Millefiori cane work — where patterned clay logs are sliced to reveal repeating cross-section designs — is one of the most recognised polymer clay jewellery techniques. In figurine and character making, polymer clay is the standard material for small sculpted figures, dolls, and decorative objects where fine detail and durability are required. In home decoration, polymer clay pieces — bowls, frames, decorative objects — are made by shaping, baking, and finishing.
