Full description

These monochrome earrings feature drops of fordite which has been bezel set in sterling silver. The fordite has stripes in sparkly monochromatic shades of silver, dark grey and navy with non sparkly white and grey, the patterns don't match but they were cut from the same slice of rough to make them a complimentary pairing. The earrings measure approx 40mm from the top of the hook to the bottom by 16mm across and are finished with simple hooks (sterling silver). Comes gift boxed.

Fordite is the name given to many layers of cured car paint that builds up in spray booths at car factories. The paint gets baked hard in between each layer leading to a durable material that can be cut to show off the many colours. This particular material I bought from a guy who worked at Ford's Wayne Assembly plant and he had collected it from the production line in circa 2017 (they were doing C-max and Focus at that time). I cut this material myself (you can see the rough in some of the photos, it's not included in the sale) so if you love fordite but want something else making drop me a message, I have quite a stash of rough from various eras and manufacturers. Fordite is becoming increasingly hard to source and thanks to more efficient painting processes less is being made so if you love your cars get some of the unique material whilst you can.
