I love green amber, and was looking for bigger, distinctive, nice post earrings.  These were perfect - and better (prettier, better made) than I expected.  They shipped quite quickly, too.

UPDATE as of June, 2013:  I lost my old pair and bought a replacement (I liked them that much) - and these earrings are now much smaller, about half the size of what they used to be.  They are otherwise the same, but they went from the perfect beautiful everyday earring to...just, cute.
