Fordite is a material formed in the automobile factories of Detroit, USA, during the process of repeated painting. The enamel layers solidified, creating stripes much like agate, and it is also known as Detroit Agate or Motor Agate. Although it is not a crystal produced by nature, it is an artificial crystal formed from solidified enamel that dripped from the car bodies during the era when car painting was done by hand. Currently, the manufacturing methods have changed, and it is no longer possible to obtain similar crystals. Therefore, although it is artificial, it is becoming increasingly valuable. In the case of stones, new veins can sometimes be found, so fluctuations in value are inevitable. However, because the same manufacturing method will not be revived in the future due to environmental and hygienic reasons, it will become rarer as time goes on.
