I cannot tell you how many compliments I have received on these earrings, especially the most recent one when a stranger asked me if they were REAL! They're very cute and a tad heavy but totally worth it! The earrings are pretty true to the size described, (from the top of my thumb to my wrist long and my pinky wide) if that helps. I have very sensitive ears, and since this isn't real gold I don't like to wear it all day but I think that these are a MUST have for people into bold jewelry and statements!
