I fell in love with the color combinations and sparkle of the natural stones and beads and bought them, but they don't really suit me, maybe because of the shape of my ears, so I'm sadly putting them up for sale... ( ; ; ) I think they would look better on someone who doesn't have "lucky ears"...! When worn, the natural stones and freshwater pearls are designed to follow the shape of the ear. I don't know the exact types of natural stones, but they are very sparkly and cute. It was difficult to take pictures, and I only have one, but I only tried them on once, so the shaft part isn't rusty, and there are no noticeable stains. However, since they have been through a piercing, please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to this. I will wrap them in bubble wrap and ship them.
