{"product_id":"sun-arc-earrings-amethyst-neutral","title":"Sun Arc Earrings (Amethyst Neutral)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBefore clocks, before calendars, before anyone had a word for solstice, people tracked the sun's path across the sky and understood it as a story. The arc it carved from east to west was not just light — it was time made visible, a geometry so fundamental it showed up in cave paintings, temple gates, and the gold crescents women wore at their throats. Every culture that watched the sky arrived at the same shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAltiplano, a woman-owned studio working directly with artisan communities in Guatemala, renders that shape here in hand-strung glass beads — each one individually placed along a curved brass wire to create a luminous half-arc that catches light the way the real thing does. The palette is amethyst neutral: muted plum and smoke and warm stone, colors that feel pulled from the last fifteen minutes before sunset, when the sky can't decide whether it's gold or violet and settles on both. There's a quietness to these that belies how striking they are on the ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arc is formed from gold-plated brass, giving it a warm, lasting glow that complements the cool amethyst tones of the glass. At 1½ inches from post to base, they sit close enough to frame the face without competing with it, and at just 2 grams per earring, they disappear the moment you put them on — which means you'll actually wear them, not just admire them in the box. The ear wires are hypoallergenic and nickel-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery purchase supports fair-wage artisan work in Guatemala through Altiplano's direct-trade partnerships, connecting centuries-old beadwork traditions to a modern design vocabulary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted by Altiplano.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Altiplano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44915010633775,"sku":"048-E-10010","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/1065\/8863\/files\/IMG-5564.jpg?v=1773712673","url":"https:\/\/haroldandhazel.com\/products\/sun-arc-earrings-amethyst-neutral","provider":"Harold \u0026 Hazel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
