{"product_id":"croc-ornament","title":"Croc Ornament","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Croc Ornament reproduces the most argued-about shoe of the century in hand-blown glass: the perforated clog, strap swung back in the relaxed position, molded holes dimpled across the top in a grid the paint refuses to apologize for. The body is blown plump and rounded, the color goes on in one bright coat that nobody will mistake for leather, and the gloss is heavy enough that the silhouette announces itself before a guest has fully entered the room. A capped loop rises from the heel, and the shoe hangs toe-down, mid-step. My cousin Fergus owns four pairs, wears them to occasions that specify otherwise, and describes the resulting arguments as seasonal. The ROM has always put the feared things behind glass — spiders, serpents, the odd preserved jaw — so the public can study what unsettles them from a comfortable distance. This shoe now performs the same service for its many opponents, annually, in December.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chive Ceramics Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47665944658057,"sku":"ORN368","price":19.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0375\/5687\/9497\/files\/ornament-clogshoe-pink-2.webp?v=1784919352","url":"https:\/\/chive.com\/products\/croc-ornament","provider":"Chive Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
