I own two pairs of these! I grow them too.
I liked these earrings so much and the price point was so reasonable that I bought a second pair on sale. I know that there is a real leaf encased in the plating, so if the first pair wears out I will have another one ready. I know exactly what leaf this artist chose to preserve: Dischidia ruscifolia, a vining relative of the Hoya family which is very popular among plant collectors. I do grow this plant along with many Hoyas. A hanging basket overflowing with this Dischidia's vines appears as thousands of tiny green hearts, and gives rise to the common name of the "thousand hearts vine." I own several pieces of jewelry from this artist and these earrings are of the same high quality construction as his other work.

Breathtaking
These earrings are breathtaking and large enough everyone can enjoy them. I love these so much, this is my second pair. I bought two pair in case I lose an earring, I wanted to have some spares. I don't know how long they will be selling them, and with my luck, the day I lose one, they will stop selling more. My only request would be to have the option to get solid gold posts, or at least have a few options for posts. I have very sensitive ears, and I have to coat the posts with clear fingernail polish. I love them.
