Statement Fordite Rings – A Blessing of Automotive Car Paint Technique

What if we tell you that a unique form of Jewelry is now being made in the old car factories? Probably, you've read the sentence twice to convince your mind, but you've got that right! Yes, here we are discussing "Fordite," a by-product that builds up in the car factories and is chipped off in random and weird shapes to transform into the most tempting gemstone Jewelry pieces. This man-made stone is creating a buzz among worldwide gemstone connoisseurs and Jewelry admirers, with its many colorful layers and jaw-dropping swirling patterns, giving birth to the most creative and outstanding statement Fordite rings. But how does it relate to the car factories? The world's adorable and favored stone has an interesting background story for you to unlock; let's find out.


Also known as Detroit Agate, Motor City Agate, Paint Rock, or Paint Slag, Fordite is simply a substance that has been unintentionally or accidentally formed from the multiple layers of automotive paints over several tens of years. Back when cars were pained into old car factories, a portion of automobile paint would naturally drop onto the floor or the metal racks used to transport vehicles to the paint booths and even into the ovens. Every time when a car gets painted or exposed to the heat for hardening of the paint, this spilled excess paint on the floor or metal racks built up and hardened with time to look like a rock carrying several colorful layers. But this charisma first came into the light in front of the world when the plant workers had to clean their entire workshop.


At that time, some plant workers took these little pieces of wonder with them as souvenirs for their families, while some were extremely attracted by the unconventional beauty of these hardened rocks. After being chipped off, these vibrant pieces of wonder are cut, treated, and polished by skilled Jewelry artisans to bring out their best version, which would dominate in the Jewelry industry. After a meticulous cutting, these rocks revealed a wide range of colorful layering, including metallic-like glittery silver and gold, along with exquisite banding and swirling patterns. No wonder this accidental man-made stone is creating alluring Fordite Jewelry pieces, be it Fordite wedding rings, Fordite pendants, or Fordite bracelets.


Enthralling Fordite Rings – Adding A Burst of Colors To Your Life

From its first discovery to the present time, this spectacular stone, or we say, an accumulated paint transformed into a rock, has created sumptuous Fordite rings, showcasing intricate patterns and a diverse range of colors in your fingers, from blue to red, bright yellow to gorgeous green, and even gray. Its vibrant color palate and lustrous structure with head-turning aesthetics make the stone suitable for every attire and occasion. It is a one-of-a-kind stone, setting new standards in the Jewelry industry. Each piece is a peak of creativity and stands out in the crowd by adding a vibrant splash of colors, gazing through every visible layer.


However, a question might be constantly ticking in your mind: "What is the stone named after"? Well, the term "Fordite" is often associated with the Ford Manufacturing plant where this material has been around since the 1920s. At that time, the auto manufacturers in the Ford Motor Company used to have hand-sprayers to paint the cars in paint booths, causing overspray to build up on the walls, floors, or even racks in those facilities. Not once or twice; there can be thousands of layers of paint that make up a single Fordite stone over the years.


Well, since then, the car manufacturing industry has modernized, and today, hand sprayers are no longer used to paint cars. Simply speaking, now there is a small amount of Fordite stones being supplied in the world. Well, it is quite fascinating to know that such a by-product, or some people might say a waste scrap in the old car factories, would someday transform itself into charming Fordite rings or other accessories one would resist.
