DESCRIPTION

The focal I used is called Fordite or Detroit Agate. This material was created many years ago at the Ford Rouge Plant just outside of Detroit, Michigan. Layer upon layer, paint over-spray built up on metal racks that transported new car bodies through the paint shop, and into the oven, where each coat was baked hard. This process of painting cars is no longer used so the material is rare & coveted. It's a piece of Michigan history and this pendant is made by my born & raised Michigan hands!!! This authentic, one of a kind Fordite (from Etsy Shop SuzyBones) is STUNNING with beautiful colors, tons of sparkle, and great patterns. This Fordite (just over 1 5/8" x 1 1/4" at widest) is packed full of brilliant, bright, shimmering color. I paired it with a piece of Iolite (5mm) that really complements the colors & brings out the purple in the Fordite. I bezel set the cabochons in fine silver .999 to a hammered and shaped solid sterling silver background. Sterling silver swirl decoration at the top. Total height of pendant is 2 7/8" and 1 3/4" at widest. Choice of Pendant Only or With adjustable length sterling silver loop chain. Max length about 20". *The last picture is a close up of the Fordite before I made it into jewelry. Thanks for looking! *Comes boxed with Fordite story card! :)
