This listing allows you to pick your fordite bracelet with several different colors available. I cut and polished these fordite stones from rough Ohio motor agate that came from the plant at Parkway in Toledo i.e. wranglerite-fordite. The fordite stone is about 20 mm across. The bracelet setting is stainless steel. This is an adjustable bracelet. I add the chain and pinch bead to these to make them easier to put on by yourself. You adjust it by moving the slide bead. Open the bracelet by holding the chains above the bead in one hand and gently sliding the bead down until the bracelet fits over your hand comfortably. Then gently pinch the bead upwards with your other hand. To know if this bracelet will fit over your hand measure around your hand at it's widest point (usually at the base of your thumb across and around. If it's 9.75 inches or less it should fit. Brian can put it on his wrist without any trouble. As these sell I update the listing with new bracelets of different colors so check back now and then to see what's available. Bracelet only, 1 bracelet per quantity of 1 purchased. The bracelet will ship in a jewelry box suitable for gifting. Picture props are not included.
Fordite is recycled automotive paint sourced from automotive factories as well as manufacturers who paint parts for new vehicles. It forms in thin layers as car parts are painted on the racks that hold them in place. After hundreds of trips through the booth where the paint is sprayed and then baked the excess buildup is scraped off the racks. We buy this waste paint in rough chunks and recycle it into beautiful jewelry. It can take hundreds of layers of paint to make a one inch thick piece of fordite. The original fordite came from Detroit and since then it’s also synonymously known as Detroit Agate. There is very little fordite that is truly vintage. Most that’s available is modern i.e. current or within the past 15 years. We prefer modern fordite as it’s water rather than lead based paint. There are many different fordite types and some are more valuable than others. You’ll find in our fordite listings we refer to the plant location that the fordite originated from rather than listing specific auto manufacturers or vehicles.You can easily google the plant location and get a list of vehicles painted there. We love to talk fordite so if you are looking for a specific type or color odds are we have it so please send us a message. All of our fordite is authentic.
