Old antique New fashion
Dressed in fine clothes
Today, I am sharing 2 pairs of earrings of blue glass from the Song Dynasty.
In fact, this year has successively made a lot of jewelry with glass. From early summer to early autumn, a blue "Midsummer Night's Dream" is appropriate.
These deep and light blues, with the depth and mystery of thousands of years, transform into the coolness of a whole midsummer
The use of glass as jewelry was actually extremely common in the Han Dynasty.
In ancient times, people called glass "liuli", and the "Book of Han and the Biography of the Western Regions" notes: "The color of glass is bright and lustrous, more than all the jade." "Colorful glass, brighter and more beautiful than jade." Therefore, it was widely circulated in the literary works of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Two Han Dynasties. Among them, Mingyue Heng, which has been mentioned many times, is the glass ear ring. Liu Lanzhi of "Peacock Southeast Flying" is "waist like flowing silk, ear to the bright moon." ”
In the Song Dynasty, "the women of Lixiang used glass as jewelry". The popularity of the glass hairpin is affordable to the public class. Xian Chun has a poetry cloud in the fifth year: "The Beijing master forbids Zhucui, and the world is full of glass." ”

Today's 2 pairs of earrings use the glass hairpin head of the Song Dynasty. The shape of the hairpin head is in line with the pattern on the gold and silver ware of that era.
In the past, I always felt that glass was difficult to design, and it did not match our regular floral treasures. But this year, without dotting, I was still impressed by this blue.
So specially designed for them by gold filigree, fried beads, woven texture with a little West Asian antique gold style pattern, with old pearls and this pure blue, is another exotic blue tone, like the gypsy girl in the wind ~~
