The earrings are very lovely though longer than what I normally wear, however I was expecting that. They look very nice and I am happy with them. My only problem was that one of the earrings' hooks was bent when it arrived and I had to bend it back into shape. Since it came in a box with plastic air wrap, a second pair of earrings, and some boots I would have to guess they were put into the box that way unless the boots happened to crush them. Either way, they are nice and I am happy with my purchase.
