Product code: Rare Sterling Corvette Detroit & America Lover newest ring
Rare Sterling newest silver Corvette Detroit Agate ring Size 7 Stamped with maker mark Made for those who Love American and classic Chevy Cars, especially for the Corvette Lover Every piece of Fordite, also known as Detroit Agate, is a unique object of beauty. Unlike agate, Fordite comes not from the ground but from the retired paint shops of the automotive industry. In the old style of painting cars there was a great deal of overspray. In a 1970's corvette paint shop the workers would sometimes knock chunks of the paint buildup loose and take them home as souvenirs. The colorful buildup was beautiful in its raw form and turned out to be breathtaking once cut and polished, perfect for use in jewelry. No one knows how much Fordite was saved. Today, there is very little overspray and no more is being made.
