"Pretty"
These are very pretty earrings, but I had to return them because they were too heavy for my earlobes. If you have stronger earlobes than mine, these area great find.

"Beautiful but weak connection"
The piece is wonderfully carved and has what looks like a real gemstone but where it comes apart, the physics are not there for a tight closure.
