“Fordite,” also known as “Detroit agate” or “Motor City agate” is not rock, but rather, the buildup of paint overspray baked over time on the walls and assembly stands in manufacturing plants. When not sold as solid chunks, it can turned into pendants, charms, cufflinks, and keepsakes.

I’ve seen it as lacquered pendants, quite pretty.

I got one for Spocky some years ago.

Maybe that’s where I saw it lol
