Fordite Rings with Pink and Blue Stainless Steel, ET311

Here's a new style in fordite rings I'm making. These rings are all stainless steel and were handmade by me. I solder the bezel's that hold the fordite stones onto the steel bands. I made the fordite stones from Toledo Ohio fordite from the plant at Parkway. These feature the pink tuscadero and some nice blue. The stone settings are about 10.8 mm across. The inside edge of the bands are contoured for comfort and are about 2 mm in width.  These steel rings are strong and durable for everyday wear and come with our lifetime warranty. I do also make fordite rings in sterling silver. Please see our shop for many more beautiful pieces of fordite.  

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.
