Materials and Features:

• Interlocking Through-Core Block Lamination: Features a high-labor architectural pattern where alternating bands of navy and white Rhodoid are heat-fused under extreme pressure, wrapping continuously around the inner and outer radiuses of the open hoop disc.

• Three-Piece Nested Anchor Button Top: Built as an intricate multi-component assembly, featuring a central navy enameled metal anchor disc nested within a scalloped gold-tone plastic frame ring, heat-fused over the striped base foundation layer.

• Multi-Plate Tiered Architecture: A true mid-1980s 3D structural configuration per ear, utilizing premium lightweight cellulose acetate that delivers an acoustic "marble-clank" resonance with a total mass of 8.7g for the pair.

• High-Gloss Glace Luster Surface: Hand-polished across both the face and the reverse to achieve a permanent, liquid-like mirror reflection that completely resists surface clouding.

Type: Pierced (Professional-grade post assemblies with specialized scalloped metal absorber stabilizer base plates)

Age/Origin: Circa 1984–1986 / Paris, France

Marks: Unmarked Attribution (Attributed to Guillemette L'Hoir / François Schoenlaub based on wrapped edge stripe block lamination, nested multi-plate button frames, and signature hardware assemblies)

Measurements:

• Footprint Dimensions: 1.50" Total Drop Length (Open hoop disc measures 1.375" across)

• Thickness: 3.0mm uniform hoop plate profile

• Volumetric Mass: Balanced, lightweight costume density weighing 8.7g for the pair

Condition: Excellent Archival Condition. The core thermal bonds remain perfectly solid with zero separation along the stripe horizons. The navy enamel insert is intact. The minor tone variation between the two gold-plated rope frames is an authentic characteristics of separate chemical plating baths during traditional 1980s artisan studio processing.
