These earrings are sturdy.  I mention this because I've had a few pairs of this style from different stores and they all break at the hook part of the earring.  But I think these will last longer because they seem to be a bit thicker.

I was a bit disappointed when I saw them for the first time because they had black gooey spots on them both.  I had to take my fingernail at scrape off the spots.  Kinda gross...

The shipping was very fast and the packaging was very well done!
