{"product_id":"empire-state-evening-earrings","title":"Empire State Evening Earrings","description":"\u003cp\u003eManhattan at dusk is not one color. It is a hundred golds — the last sun catching limestone, the first lights warming brass, every window briefly molten before the city tilts into night. There is a reason photographers call it the golden hour, and a reason it never lasts long enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Empire State Building opened on May 1, 1931, in the teeth of the Depression, and it was immediately, improbably, a symbol of optimism. Its Art Deco silhouette — all vertical lines and tapered geometry — didn't just define a skyline. It defined an era's belief that elegance and ambition were the same thing. The Deco designers who shaped that moment understood something essential: that ornament should move upward, that line should elongate, that gold should catch light the way a building catches sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese earrings carry that instinct.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGold-plated brass descends in a long, architectural cascade — four inches from ear wire to tip — with a layered, linear geometry that recalls the setback silhouettes of Deco towers. At 6 grams per earring, they have genuine presence and deliberate swing without heaviness. The gold plating is warm and luminous, the kind that glows against an evening neckline. Ear wires are nickel-free and hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted by David Aubrey Jewelry, a woman-owned studio in New Jersey.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David Aubrey Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44965836029999,"sku":"051-E-10002","price":72.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/1065\/8863\/files\/IMG-5651.jpg?v=1774215482","url":"https:\/\/haroldandhazel.com\/products\/empire-state-evening-earrings","provider":"Harold \u0026 Hazel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
