I purchased these for the earthen colors and double drops. They are just so finely made - delicate but yet draw attention. I have ordered another different pair by this artisan which I had to wait for - definitely worth the wait and I am looking forward to their arrival!
The rubies are a beautiful, deep red; the checkerboard cut really enhances the gems. The components are in good proportion to each other. They are both substantial and lightweight; the posts are sturdy and the backs secure well. I really love these earrings!
