Open Twist Hoop Earrings

A) a gram of 14k gold is valued at $50. B) these earring combined weigh less than a half a gram. C) you can’t open or close the back without squeezing, missshaping or deforming the earring D) until consumers start to understand the actual value of precious metals and stones designers will continue to try and charge outlandish prices for their stuff E) Bony Levy is a made for Nordstrom exclusive brand which means you can’t open buy it at Nordstrom rack for a heck of a lot less abut either way you still have to deal with Nordstrom sub-par handling of luxury goods. They don’t package things appropriately or box things or provide certified paperwork (for example with diamonds or a YSL handbag). F) the earrings are cute. They’re not spectacular. They’re very small and too fragile. Mostly though you can buy an alternative to these elsewhere in 18k for less than $100. $300 for 1/2 gram of 14k is some dumb person math. The value for the materials is $25. The construction and quality isn’t worth the extra $275.
