These findings are a great idea. I especially liked the fact that I could use them to lower drops on my earrings so they wouldn't be right in front of the earlobe as they can be on ordinary posts. Unfortunately, they need to be better quality, even if it makes them cost a bit more - it would be worth it. I've had problems with the post snapping off from the back of the shield, even when just trying to carefully put a back on it. If that issue were corrected, this would definitely be a 5-star finding.
