Fordite Necklace, Solid Silver Peace Necklace, Peace Symbol, Fordite, Peace Symbol Necklace

This fordite peace symbol necklace is is solid silver and would make a great gift or you could treat yourself to it. We hand cut this peace symbol from fordite which occurred at the Parkway Toledo Ohio plant in 2021. It's in a domed round. We set it in solid fine and sterling silver. The pictured chain is also solid silver. If you like the pendant but don't need a chain you can choose the Pendant NO Chain option. We can also make a black leather cord (20 inch) with stainless components if you'd prefer that.

We have the fordite piece you're looking for. Please see our shop for many more one of a kind fordite listings.

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.
