I like these earrings which remind me of the phases of the moon. I found the wire that goes through the ear a little thick for my particular ears. It may have needed to be strong to carry the weight of the earrings, not sure. They’re not heavy, they look good on. I appreciate all the careful packaging but I felt that they could have been posted in the box itself with lots of tape securing it - to carry through the ‘sustainable’ theme. These earrings are a highly original design which I love.
