Spot on

The earrings felt thoughtful without being over the top.

nice present

Got the pair for my partner and they were made up with it. It looked better than a last minute gift from town. It made sense as a gift because it felt personal without being too much. I opened these earrings, put them aside, then came back to them later.

Nice present

The earrings felt thoughtful without being over the top. It is still being used, so the first impression stayed pretty fair. I was worried they might look cheap but they did not. It made sense as a gift because it felt personal without being too much. I checked them under normal light before wrapping it up. The earrings arrived fast enough for when I needed it.
