Full description
This free form pendant features fordite with a bold sparkly silver and red 'eye' in the pattern of loops and whorls. The fordite pendant is smoothly bezel set in sterling silver and finished with a simple loop bail, the setting is open backed making it reversible but due to the doming it will sit better the right way round. The pendant measures approx 50mm by 25mm (inc bail) and it comes with an 18 inch silver chain, the bail could fit a ribbon or thong if you wanted to swap it over.
Fordite is layers of cured paint that built up in the spray booths at vehicle plants, the panels would be placed on rails to be sprayed and paint would build up on the rails getting cured after each coat. The guy I bought the rough material from worked at the Kenworth plant in Chillicothe USA. Kenworth make cabs for big 18 wheel trucks often with custom paint colours hence the range in this piece. When I cut this piece I left some of the outer 'crust' of the fordite on the piece which is the white around the edge. Changes in how vehicles are painted mean that fordite is only formed in small quantities now and it is becoming increasingly difficult to source. I have a bit of a stockpile of rough material from a range of factories so if you fancy something else then drop me a message. (You can see some of the rough in the photos, this is not included in the sale)
