Full description

This super sparkly pendant features a large rounded triangle shaped cabochon of fordite bezel set in sterling silver. It measures 52mm drop (inc bail) by 30mm across. The fordite has a swirly pattern in sparkly shades of silver grey, bright blue, navy, red, black and white, it is set in an open back setting so that it can be worn either way round but the back is predominately pale grey. This fordite pendant is very striking and eye catching so you are sure to get comments about it but this is a unisex design that I think could be worn by anyone day or night.

So what is fordite - its layers of cured car paint that built up in the spray booths at car plants, this piece comes from Ford's Wayne Assembly Plant in Michigan probably around 2016 (they were making Focus and Cmax at the time, Ford are not associated with this product though). The method for painting cars has become more efficient so less rough fordite is formed and is increasingly difficult to get hold of so if you are a fan of cars (or looking for a gift for a petrol head) I'd get some quick (I'm stock piling it whilst I can).

Measures 52mm by 30mm including the generous ring at the top and comes with a 18 inch sterling silver chain (the ring at the top could easily take a leather cord and if you'd prefer that then drop me a message). Comes in a gift box.
