I bought these for the size, shape and color. I'm tall but I found them to be too long. I detached the top shell and connected the bottom one to the ear wires which solved the problem perfectly.
My friend who raises orchids loved these real orchid petal earrings, and so do I! Was so happy to find them on Novica, and happy that Danai had the vision and skill to create these lovely "petal" earrings.
