Nicely made, but unable to put a typical earring wire through the earlobe hole without bending and distorting it. Maybe would work OK for some studs. Not usable for me- but trying to use it made scratches on the ceramic surface making it un-returnable. Sigh.

Wobbly and Earrings Don't Fit
(8/4/2017)
The material is high-quality and feels like porcelain. It is aesthetically, lovely to look at.
However, it wobbles in the stand. I have to adapt the pole by wrapping it in rubber bands to stand firm in the base. I'm afraid it will topple off the table because it is top-heavy on a pole stuck in a base with a hole, too large for the pole.
The earrings don't fit. Even simple french-hook wires will not glide into the hole without bending. I had to carefully, drill the hole larger to accommodate my custom-shaped wires that were "eaten" by the original hole and became terribly mis-shapen when I tried to remove them. Because the material is rigid and not flexible like human ears, the ears need to be MUCH thinner to accommodate the curves of earwires if they are to stay rigid. Mfg. take note: we need FLEXIBLE ears for earring mannequins.
