Perfect for displaying earrings. Yes as other reviewers have stated, the plastic is a little thin but I don't mind. I don't worry that it will break any time soon.  Each row has space for potentially 24 pairs of earrings (two holes - one on top of the other). Some smaller earrings fit perfectly on top of each other while larger earrings will need to be placed next to each other. The rows are spaced so that some longer dangly earrings will overlap the row below covering the holes but as long as you space out your earrings correctly you can utilize the holes efficiently.  This is exactly what I needed to keep my earrings organized. I took the feet off and just have my holder propped on a picture ledge against the wall.
