Lea Stein Attributed Rainbow Laminated Rhodoid Plastic Modernist Half Hoop Pierced Earrings




Lea Stein Attributed Rainbow Laminated Rhodoid Plastic Modernist Half Hoop Pierced Earrings
Materials and Features:
Artisan Angle-Cut Lamination: A sophisticated architectural design featuring deep, machine-polished bevels along the outer edge. This specialized carving technique "opens up" the layered Rhodoid construction, revealing a vibrant, multi-color spectrum from every angle.
5mm Rhodoid "Sandwich" Construction: Crafted from a substantial 5mm industrial block using the proprietary high-pressure lamination process from the Stein workshop. This method "bakes" multiple wafers of high-quality cellulose acetate into a single, seamless block of color with superior structural presence.
Modernist Flat Half-Hoop Silhouette: A sleek, minimalist "C" curve design that captures the bold, experimental energy of the 1970s Parisian studio era. The 5mm flat-face profile provides a clean, architectural aesthetic with significant depth-of-field.
Lightweight Studio Engineering: Despite the increased 5mm thickness, these earrings maintain a comfortable weight of approx. 7g. This specific density offers a substantial visual impact and "Executive" feel without the lobe fatigue common in mass-produced resins.
Type: Pierced earrings with professional-grade post assemblies mounted flush into the Rhodoid curve
