{"product_id":"mesa-marina-hoops","title":"Mesa \u0026 Marina Hoops","description":"\u003cp\u003eDrive far enough into the American Southwest and the palette simplifies itself. Dust and sky. Sandstone and shadow. The earth bleaches to a warm, sun-baked tan, and above it — relentless, almost unreasonably vivid — the sky goes cobalt. Not blue. Cobalt. The kind of saturated, mineral-deep color that Spanish Colonial painters ground from smalt and layered onto altarpiece panels, knowing it would still be glowing centuries later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat dialogue between land and sky is older than any building, any road, any name on a map. It shows up in Pueblo pottery, in Navajo weavings, in the tiled fountains of the California missions where the desert meets the coast — the mesa meeting the marina. Two worlds, two temperatures, two kinds of beauty held in tension. It is one of the most enduring color stories in American craft, and it has never once felt dated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese hoops translate that conversation into something you can wear every day. Bijou by SAM — a woman-owned studio working out of Montana — hand-builds each pair using precision-cut Japanese Miyuki seed beads in cobalt blue and warm tan, wrapped around Argentium Sterling Silver hoops. Argentium is a purer, more tarnish-resistant grade of sterling, which means these will keep their gleam without fuss. At 1¼ inches in diameter and just 2 grams per earring, they sit lightly on the ear — the kind of hoop you forget you're wearing until someone asks about them. Hypoallergenic and nickel-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a small, perfectly resolved object that feels as considered as a mosaic tile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted by Bijou by SAM.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bijou by SAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43897676955695,"sku":"014-E-10017","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0604\/1065\/8863\/files\/IMG-4662.jpg?v=1754187031","url":"https:\/\/haroldandhazel.live\/products\/mesa-marina-hoops","provider":"Harold \u0026 Hazel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
