You can make a statement with these classic revival style lion door knocker earrings.    Lion head door knockers became popular in England in the early 19^th century and were symbols of courage, power, and strength.       You can wear these on vacation to a castle in the Europe,  to the Vanderbilt mansion in Newport, or with your favorite Versace shirt.  No other time is appropriate, just kidding.     The bronze lion head itself is almost an inch long and the ring in his mouth lengthens the earrings to a total of 1 and 1/4 inches.  The earrings are made of a zinc alloy metal, and come with plastic disc earring backs to provide additional support.
