I am happy to wrap and send gifts direct to recipients with a note - just specify their delivery address when you check out (I use either special delivery or track 24 so you can follow it round the country to the recipient). I cut and polish my own fordite, surfite and bowlerite, I'm happy to take commissions. If I don't have shipping to your country set up please drop me a message as it might be possible.

Full description

These almost tear drop earrings have minimalist dangles of fordite which has been bezel set in sterling silver and finished with simple hooks. The fordite has a white base with red, silver and blue which form an 'x' type pattern. The silver and blue are sparkly metallic paints. Fordite is lightweight so these earrings are not heavy in the ears, they measure approx 45mm top to bottom by 18mm across. The earrings have been finished with simple hooks (if you'd prefer kidney wires then let me know and I'll swap them over). Comes gift boxed.

Fordite is the name given to the cured build up of paint that forms in spray booths at car factories. I believe this material has come from GM's Orion Assembly plant near Detroit within the last 10 years but haven't managed to pin point a specific car model or year, the sparkly paints and limited range of colours are consistent with recent fordite. I cut and polish this material myself (you can see the rough in some of the photos, its not included in the sale) so if you would prefer something else then drop me a message - I have quite a stash of different types of fordite from 1958 Cadillac to recent Jeep Wrangler.
