Cernit

The polymer clay Cernit was born in the sixties, in Prague, in Czech Republic. A couple of scientists created this clay, the name came from the creator’s first name, Cerna.

Forced to emigrate in Germany in 1963, they both decide to publish a newspaper ad to find an investor who would help them develop the product.

Soon, Mr Manfred Guder notice the ad and decides to collaborate with the inventors. When they decide to retire, Mr Guder hired a chemist in charge of the development of the clay colour range. At that time, production takes place in the Frankfurt factory in Germany.
