This is a truly unique set of fordite earrings with solid sterling silver components. I made these to resemble a purse or handbag with the fordite resembling the purse and the silver arch the handle. All sides of the fordite are polished. The arch parts are textured on the front side with an abstract pattern. The fordite is from the plant at Parkway in Toledo Ohio. I shaped them to show many layers of colorful paint. This is a large set of earrings compared to my usual offerings. Fordite is light weight so they are not heavy like stone would be. The fordite pieces measure about 20 x 26 in mm. The solid silver arches are about 14 x 17 in mm. These would make a great gift for someone who likes larger earrings. The fourth picture shows the back side of the earrings.
Picture props are not included.
Fordite is recycled automotive paint sourced primarily from automotive factories. 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 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's said it takes almost a thousand layers of paint to make a one inch thick piece of fordite. The original fordite came from Ford Motors in Detroit hence the name Ford-ite. Fordite from prior to 1978 can contain lead. All of our fordite is either current or from the early 2000?s so it?s not lead based.
