{"product_id":"inside-outside-hoops-litmus","title":"Inside Outside Hoops (Litmus)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThink about what litmus actually means — not the paper strip from chemistry class, but the older, stranger thing. Litmus comes from lichens. For centuries, dyers extracted pigment from organisms that clung to rocks and bark, creatures that were neither plant nor animal, that changed color depending on what they touched. The word itself became a metaphor for sensitivity, for responsiveness, for the moment something reveals its true nature under new conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat interplay of color and transformation is what Mosaico Jewels channels in these hoops. Working from their studio in Guadalajara, their artisans set tiny crystals by hand — inside and outside the hoop — so that the color catches light from every angle, every direction. It is a technique rooted in the Mexican mosaic tradition, where small individual pieces create something far more alive than any single surface could. The result is a hoop that never looks quite the same way twice: shift your head, step into different light, and the crystals respond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSterling silver forms the structure, polished to a clean, cool finish that lets the crystal work do all the talking. At 1¼ inches, these sit close to the jaw — intimate enough for a Tuesday, striking enough for a night you want to remember. Each earring weighs 4 grams, giving them a grounded, quality feel without any drag. The ear wires are hypoallergenic, so sensitive skin is never part of the conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat responsiveness — color shifting with light, inside meeting outside, the small thing that reveals more the closer you look — is what makes these more than hoops. It is jewelry that behaves the way litmus behaves: differently, depending on the moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted by Mosaico Jewels in Guadalajara, Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mosaico Jewels","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43595959828527,"sku":"007-E-10023","price":93.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/1065\/8863\/files\/4571DC00-095B-4198-9FCB-E9CC033F74E4.jpg?v=1740103041","url":"https:\/\/haroldandhazel.live\/products\/inside-outside-hoops-litmus","provider":"Harold \u0026 Hazel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
