First off, the posts are quite soft. The earrings arrived packed securely in a flat shipping box, but truly they should have been in their own little box as well -- one of the posts was flattened. I carefully bent it back into shape and hope it won't break from the metal stress.

The earrings themselves are pretty -- they catch the light very nicely but but they would sparkle in the light alot more if there was at least one more facet cut on the back area. They would also look much nicer if they were two-piece instead of one-piece -- a two-piece setup would move with the wearer and catch more light.
