The only one i have heard of is using fine silver as a backing, most other metals tarnish in the kiln. The other problem is that dissimilar metals don’t like to be bonded and are likely to corrode. Stainless steel may work, you try it and let me know. Of course the lead or tin would melt before the silver was fired.
