These are earrings made with real cherry blossoms. They dangle and sway with every movement, which is very cute, and I think you'll have more opportunities to wear them as spring approaches. I bought them a few years ago, but they didn't suit me very well, so I've only worn them two or three times and have kept them stored in a dark place ever since. I don't think there are any noticeable stains, but please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a perfect item.
