These earrings are painted on both sides - hummingbird on one side and design on the other. The paint or a sealant is raised off the surface of the marble. There are tiny rhinestones incorporated into the designs. They are beautifully done. I was afraid they would be too heavy because they are marble but they are not. The puffy flower shape of the marble is a bit less than one inch. So glad to have them.
I love the idea of Peace doves. I love doves, too, and I picture them reaching upwards towards the Heavens with love to my mother when I wear them. Gianluca Anzani is a true artist.
