ok, these really are actual flowers that have gone through some magical process to make them hard, preserved, durable earrings. The color is wonderful. They are big though, I have double pierced ears and I can't wear anything in my second piercing when I wear these, but that's fine with me.
This is a delicate-looking piece of jewelry but seems very well-made. It's slightly smaller than I expected but will look great worn with a spring dress for my granddaughter.
