I received these as part of my T-shirt subscription box. At first I was a little disappointed I didn’t receive the gold tone. As I am a redhead gold tone tends to be my go to color. However, I find I keep gravitating to this beautiful shiny gun metal color. In fact I wore them to the 38 special concert. They were lightweight and did not pull or tug at my ears as I was dancing around during the concert. I received so many compliments on how they complimented rather than competed with my skin tone and my hair color.They are a larger earring as far as length they’re about an inch inch and a half long. For me that’s perfect. I am a tall girl. At 5’10” tall it’s nice to have something that doesn’t get lost on me but also doesn’t steal the show from me. These are an absolute perfect earring great quality and I highly recommend them.
