Full description

This sterling silver pendant features a pear shaped piece of fordite with a swirly pattern in blue, yellow, white, red and black, suitably psychadelic for this vintage material. I have left the back of the setting open so that you can appreciate the stripy pattern on the reverse (the bail could be flipped over and the piece worn backwards but the dome on the front means that it wouldn't sit well if worn backwards) and marvel at the sparkly layers of paint. Fordite is layers of cured car paint that built up in the spray booths before health and safety introduced air extraction systems, the fordite I use is vintage material that has come from the Dagenham Ford plant so is ideal for anyone who loves/ loved their cortina or capri back in the 70's.

Measures approx 1 1/2 inches from top to bottom and just under 3/4 inch across. Comes with a 16 inch chain but you could swap it for another one or thin cord if you wanted to.

Comes gift boxed.
