I actually bought two pairs.... one seems to have gotten lost, but I have two piercings on one ear, so it's all good. These make an excellent second earring if I'm wearing a pair that's more substantial and I don't want to detract from that pair.
I purchased these earrings for my sister?s birthday. She called me to thank me and said they are beautiful in person. She lives across the country but I?m going to see her at the end of the month so I will get to see the earrings, too.
The symbolism is very clear: dragon eating it's tail and OM. Pendant is bigger and a bit heavier than you might expect. Chain complements it perfectly. I'd say it's actually a unisex item.
