Product Name: "Lava Blue Glass Glow"
I. Clip-on Earring Information
• Era: 1980s
• Origin: France
• Size: 2.5-3CM
• Material: Gold-plated base, lava-blue glass (imitating the flowing texture of naturally cooled lava, with fine bubble-like textures inside), bordered with silver wire outlining the edges
• Design: The glass takes an irregular lava flow shape, with a curve that fits the jawline. The collision of gold plating and blue glass exudes the 1980s French "cool yet luxurious elegance," carrying a retro, modern dramatic tension.
II. Sourcing Story
It was 4 a.m. at the Saint-Ouen flea market, and dew had dampened the canvas stalls. The pair of earrings was clipped to the lapel of an 80s denim jacket. The vendor, an elderly gentleman with a pipe, explained that the original owner was an 80s street photographer who’d worn them while shooting nights in Montmartre. I was just about to ask the price when a leather-jacketed collector suddenly reached out to grab them. The old man waved him off: “Gotta explain its ‘blue’—the bubbles in this glass are ‘lava air pockets,’ intentionally left by the craftsman back then. There are no more than three pairs in all of Paris.” I squatted by the stall and counted 17 bubbles, then talked for half an hour about my understanding of 80s “cool-toned opulence.” He finally pressed the earrings into my hand: “Rather than selling to a collector, I’d rather it be worn with life.”
III. Styling Suggestion
Pair with a white linen shirt (hem casually tucked into the waistband, sleeves rolled up to the elbows), high-waisted wide-leg jeans (light blue washed, floor-grazing length), and brown woven sandals (with silver clasps). Let the earrings be the standout piece, complemented by a straw wide-brimmed hat (with a string of blue glass beads sewn along the brim), thin silver hoop earrings (layered with the clip-ons), and a canvas tote bag (printed with California wave patterns). The lava blue softens the freshness of linen, while the gold plating contrasts with the ruggedness of denim—like a vintage lady by the Santa Monica beach: lazy yet subtly sharp with elegance.
