The Fordite Collection

Fordite Jewellery –

Fordite is not just jewellery — it’s history you can wear. Often called the “Detroit agate,” Fordite is formed from layers of automotive paint that built up over decades on factory spray racks, then hardened and cured with time. Each slice reveals wild, colourful striations that can never be repeated, making every piece completely one of a kind.

Our Fordite jewellery celebrates transformation: industrial waste reborn as wearable art. No two patterns are ever the same — bold swirls, vivid stripes, and unexpected colour combinations tell a story of motion, craftsmanship, and the golden age of car manufacturing. This is material with a past, shaped by human hands and industrial heritage, now refined into something timeless.

Each piece is carefully cut, shaped, and set to highlight the natural layers within the Fordite, allowing its colours and patterns to speak for themselves. Whether you’re drawn to its history, its sustainability, or its unmistakable visual impact, Fordite jewellery is a statement of individuality.

Wear a fragment of automotive history. Own a piece that will never exist again.

Shop our authentic Fordite jewellery today and wear a piece of automotive history with pride.
