Cadilite from the legendary Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas—a stunning example of fordite, the colorful automotive paint buildup that forms on discarded car bodies over decades. This free-form cabocheon weighs 10.5 carats and measures 35x17x4mm, showcasing vibrant layers of paint in rich hues that tell the story of mid-century American automotive culture.
Each piece is entirely unique, with its own pattern of color striations created naturally by years of paint accumulation. Perfect for collectors of unusual gemstones, jewelry makers seeking one-of-a-kind focal stones, or anyone fascinated by industrial geology and automotive history. A conversation starter that bridges art, history, and natural processes in a single polished stone.
