Yeah, yeah, I know you can wear amber year-round, but there's just something about the color that reminds me of autumn leaves and windswept days.

This earrings are NICE, much, much nicer than in the picture. I've been an amber fan for a long time, and I have several pairs of earrings. There was just something about the shape of these earrings that was unusual, and the amber itself was really interesting (amber being a natural material.)

I was not disappointed! The earrings hang nicely off my earlobe, and for a change, they're very easy to see under my hair. The amber ovoid globe is a nice size, not tiny or chintzy, and the silver leverbacks are pretty and sturdy. They hold the earrings on just fine.

If you can catch these earrings when Amazon is doing a 30 or 40 percent off sale (like I did :) ), I highly recommend you take the plunge. VERY well worth the price, and even better when they're marked down!
