Full description

These dangly earrings feature rounded triangular drops of fordite which has been bezel set in sterling silver, the earrings have been finished off with sterling silver hooks. The fordite has a pattern of stripes in shades of white, red, orange, black, grey and silver, some of the bands sparkle in the light. The white at the bottom of the drop is the outer layer of this particular piece of rough, the drops were cut as a sister pair (ie side by side) so they almost match and you can see how the bands go from one drop to the other. These fordite earrings measure approx 45mm from top of the hook to the bottom of the drop by approx 15mm wide. Comes in a gift box.

Not come across fordite before? It is layers of cured paint that builds up in spray booths at vehicle factories where the paint misses the panel it is meant for, as painting technology improves and becomes more accurate less fordite is formed. This material is from the Kenworth truck plant in Chillicothe, Ohio. I bought the rough from a guy who works there, he had harvested it when they were doing a clear out in 2018. Love the idea of fordite but want something else - drop me a message, I have a stash of rough from various vehicle factories and since I cut and polish it myself I should be able to make what you want.

Measures 45mm by 15mm across and comes in a gift box.
