Full description

These muted stud earrings feature oblongs of fordite which has been bezel set in sterling silver. The fordite had a sparkly light grey base with fine rings in sparkly red, silver and yellow and thanks to how I've cut it whilst the shape is oblong the rings are triangular with the wide point at the top. These studs measure 20mm by 7mm and the post is mounted approx 5mm from the top so they will extend below the bottom of your ear lobe (or you might be able to angle them up your ear depending on its shape). Comes gift boxed.

Fordite is the name given to many layers of cured car paint that builds up in old style spray booths at car factories. The paint gets baked hard inbetween each layer leading to a durable material that can be cut to show off the many colours. This particular material has come from Ford's Wayne Assembly plant around 2016 (the yellow is 'tangerine scream' I've been told). I cut this material myself and you can see the rough in some of the photos (not included) so if you love fordite but want something else making drop me a message. 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.
