"Excellent workmanship and value. They have a unique look--something you sure don't see too much. I bought these for my wife, and she absolutely adores them. They're very striking looking and extremely light and (she says) very comfortable to wear. It was a great buy!"

"The earrings are very pretty. Lighter than I expected but will surely be easier on my ear lobes. They look heavier in the picture."

Very Beautiful, October 29, 2009
By juls24 from california

"I saw these earrings a few months ago and debated over purchasing them. Then when i decided to do it, they were out of stock! A few weeks ago i received an email that the earrings were back in stock, and i bought them right away. They arrived in two days, and are very beautiful. They are lightweight, and smaller in size than i had thought, but very pretty. In the picture, the design is a little blueish, but on mine its black. I do recommend getting a back for them because they are lightweight and easy to lose. Overall, very pleased with my purchase."

"the earrings are beautiful however very light weight and i lost one the second time i wore them so make sure you use one of the little things that stops the earring from slipping out of your ear. i wish i could order just one earring lol as i really do love the way thesy look. definitely worth the money."

Sterling Silver Filigree Drop Earrings, May 28, 2009
By lhillemn

Value:		5 out of 5
Appearance:		5 out of 5
Workmanship:		5 out of 5

"I ordered these because they reminded me of some silver earrings I bought decades ago from an Israeli who came to my school with hand-wrought filigree earrings. I bought three pairs, one silver and two brass, and continued to wear them since the 1970s when I bought them. Unfortunately someone broke into my house and stole my jewelry. Among the missing jewelry were two of these three pairs so when I found these, I ordered them to replace the silver ones. They were a little smaller than I expected but they are truly beautiful and I am enjoying them very much. They are probably actually a little more "age appropriate" for me now as the originals were about 3 inches long - my hippie earrings! These could be dressy or casual."

"Be sure and NOT include the wire when figuring the length...the design of the earrings is beautiful but they are quite a bit longer and larger than I anticipated and will have a hard time carrying them off."

"My new favorite earrings. My 4 star rating is that they should also come with some clear plastic holders for the back, I have almost lost one, they are so light you can not feel them falling out! I get lots of compliments and am thinking of buying more for gifts."
