14K Gold Textured Hoop Earrings

Let me start this by saying I own quite a few things from this brand. I was first introduced to Bony Levy through Nordstromrack. I decided to treat my acceptance into graduate school by purchasing these hoops. After only a year of wear, the posts are tarnished. As this item holds sentimental value to me, I was very religious about not wearing it in the shower or to sleep. I’m just staring off in my career, so to me, this was a big spend, and I regret it. My heart breaks because I am absolutely in love with the design of these earrings, but ultimately, I don’t feel that the quality of this brand is worth it. Like I mentioned, I've only purchased Nordstrom racks in the past, so they were highly reduced, and today almost everything I have from this brand has tarnished. I wish I was able to return them, and even though I know Nordstrom has an amazing return policy, with my social anxiety, I feel like I would be too embarrassed to take a chance and be denied. Anyway, I hope this is helpful to future buyers. Also if anyone is particularly curious the 2 stars are mainly because everything about the design is amazing but the quality of the materials for me isn’t worth it.
