I do like these earrings, mostly for the shape.  It's not a round or square shape, which makes them unusual.  I also like the matte gold finish.  The leverbacks are a little cheap and wobbly, but they'll do.  I also think the gold tone will scratch off over time, but so far, so good.  They come packaged in a little black faux velvet bag, so hopefully this will help.  They're very lightweight, which is a plus!
