I love these earrings. A little larger than I expected but I can adjust. The hook was bent when I opened the package. I tried to straighten it and it broke. I plan to just replace it myself

The first thing these were gift wrapped ,but didn't have to be-at first thought I paid extra,but guess not--the birds are ok-seemed like there was an little notch in the head of one-bird--They are nice and light.

These earrings are great, they are light, earthy and a beautiful abstraction of birds. The wood is very dark so if you have long dark hair they might not be too showy, but with a pony tail they look fantastic. I absolutely love them.
