Gold-filled jewelry has 100x more gold alloy than gold plated and because that layer is so much thicker, it means gold-filled jewelry lasts longer and stands up to wear and tear better than gold plated.
These earrings are roughly 3.5" long, including ear wire. Pink crystals are narrow, about 0.20" wide.
U-Shape - Includes ear cradle & can be worn in the classic one length.
