On a persoanl note, these earrings are exactly what I was looking for!  Thank you again Amazon.  If you are looking for a really nice large hoop that will sit well on the ear and not be too heavy, this is it.  They are very pretty and nice and shinny.  They won't turn and sit at an awkward angle on your ears as so many large hoop earrings do.  These earrngs are a must for any woman's wardrobe.
