Kenworth Fordite Pair of cabochons

Fordite, also known as Detroit agate, originated in the mid-20th century when automobile factories in Detroit would paint cars in vibrant hues. The paint overspray would accumulate in layers on the factory floors, which, over time, dried and hardened. This leftover paint has since been salvaged and transformed into stunning cabochons that capture the essence of the vehicles they once adorned.

These matched earring pairs boast a remarkable combination of colors and patterns unique to each piece, making them incredibly special for anyone looking to add a conversation starter to their jewelry collection. The rich history embedded in the Fordite not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also provides a tangible connection to the golden era of automobile manufacturing.

In addition to their stunning design, they also serve as a perfect gift for vintage car enthusiasts or anyone captivated by the allure of unique jewelry. Adding a matched earring pair of cabochons of Kenworth Fordite vintage car paint to a jewelry collection is an invitation to share in the nostalgia and artistry of a bygone era, making them truly timeless treasures.
