Sterling Silver Fordite Necklace
$64.00
Fordite or "motor agate" necklace with silver chain - Fordite or "motor agate" was formed by the overspray of paint in automobile manufacturing - The overspray built up on the tracks the cars were painted on and put in ovens to cure the paint. These layers of paint were then removed when they became too thick. - These chunks of built up paint were salvaged and then cut and polished to be turned into "stones" - Cars are no longer painted in this manner so Fordite is in limited supply This slice of Fordite has a different pattern on each side, measures 1 1/2" long 1 1/4" wide 24" silver chain included
