Materials and Features:

• Pearlized Moonglow Lucite: A high-density industrial acrylic featuring an internal mint green swirl. The structural pigment folding creates a luminous, "liquid" luster that reacts to movement, a hallmark of high-octane 1960s polymer design.

• Heat-Set Industrial Contour: These 2mm rectangular plates are permanently set with a subtle parabolic curve. This architectural engineering allows the 1.5-inch face to hug the jawline rather than sitting flat, an industrial labor choice that ensures a superior, ergonomic drape on the ear.

• Modernist "Aperture" Suspension: The design utilizes an open-window circular cutout to suspend the teardrop hardware. This use of "negative space" creates a bold, geometric silhouette characteristic of the mid-century Pop Art movement.

• Modular Convertible Hardware Defense: Features a 100% magnetic Japanned steel assembly with a removable hinged mechanism. This "Convertible" logic allows the user to swap or maintain hardware without compromising the Lucite plates, a sophisticated industrial solution for modern archival wear and long-term stability.

Type: Convertible pierced-clip earrings with removable hinged steel assemblies

Age/Origin: Circa 1958–1964 / American Boutique Industrial

Marks: Unmarked (Attributed based on technical Moonglow lamination and Japanned steel hardware unique to the era)

Measurements:

• Thickness: 2mm (Consistent plate density)

• Dimensions: 1.5 inch total length x 1.0 inch wide

• Weight: 9.0g total (Individual plates 2.7g)

Condition: Excellent Archival Condition. The Lucite maintains original clarity and curvature. The charcoal Japanned finish is stable and brilliant, showing only minor internal wear on the reverse consistent with industrial aging.
