I have a friend who really doesn't like dangly earrings, but who loves marcasite. These are perfect: small size, no dangle and Marcasite!
She loves them.
These are my new favorite earrings. They are good for both daily wear and dressing up a bit. I always get a lot of compliments on them, too. The silver is a bit soft, so I do have to be careful when handling them.
It's hard to find long earrings that does not detract from an overall look. This pair has a quiet elegance and can fit many outfits without being showy.
