I don't know what to say except, boy was I wrong. The ears on the necklace definitely don't move. The Dumbo pendant on the necklace is so (so so so) tiny that there wouldn't be any room for the ears to move. I'm so confused as to the difference between the dumbo necklace and the earrings that part of me thinks that the designs got mixed up and the pendant ended up on the earrings and the Dumbo for the earrings ended up on the necklace. The earrings are so big in fact, that I'm going to return them. Plus the earring wiggling on the earrings isn't as cute as it would have been on the necklace. I'm also going to return the necklace because $85 is too much for such a small charm on what looks like tarnished silver. I'm not sure if I'm expressing myself clearly so I put some comparison shots below. I added a nickle and a penny for size reference.

That's so disappointing. My necklace is arriving tomorrow, but will be going right back after seeing your photos :(

Thank you for these pics, I was going to order the necklace but now it's off my list!

Yes! That is odd! It does look mixed up.

I love the petite dumbo necklace. I prefer it smaller but I agree- steep price point for a tiny costume piece.

Wow, that’s ridiculous, even the bracelet has ears that move! How is anyone supposed to see what is actually on the necklace unless they are holding it in their hand? I thought it was strange that the bracelet and earrings were so expensive compared to the necklace.
 
So, I have received the following Spring items and have some reviews:

Dumbo barrel bag (I ordered this on the day of the Spring fashion show): it is absolutely beautiful and reminds me of Coach quality from 25 or more years ago.
Dumbo necklace: I am returning it is small (hard to see details), and the color looks like tarnished silver.
Dumbo metal charm: It is adorable, but it is heavy and pulls on bags - probably returning.
Dumbo Academy Pouch: I'm not in love with the leather and I'm not sure about the upside down Dumbo - I'm most likely returning.
Dumbo camera bag: Love it - love the details - love everything about it.
Thumper camera bag: Love it - love the details - love everything about it.

Outstanding orders:
Dumbo sweatshirt
Dumbo earrings: Am hoping I like them - I'm worried after some TPF reviews...

Question on the barrel bag: how is the opening in terms of getting things in/out? My big concern is scratching my hand/the contents of my bag on the zipper given the style of opening.

Your hand does scrape against the zipper, but it does not scratch. As for items, you can get them in and out if they are small (easily without scratching), medium (with care you can get them in and out), large is not easy or probably good for the bag. So card cases, zippy coin cases, compact wallets are easy. I can't put my large wallets or epi pens inside an insulated case in side without really stretching the opening.

It fits more than you think though.
 
Well, here she is. I took photos in various rooms of the house where the light is different. I really thought I'd just be packing it up to send back because it's not practical but I think I am going to have a harder time letting go than I thought. My observations...
From 1941 line.
Super detailed as I would expect from a patchwork bag. Mixes of plain, metallic, textured & embellished leathers & suede.
Generous size; when open, the midpoint is 9" across & 5" wide. Useable depth is between 6"-7".
Strap is simple, adjustable & substantial. It attaches at the top on rings by the handle.
The exterior back pocket runs the length of the back & gives a little. I could easily fit my phone, work badge & tissues in it.
Main opening is leather lined (burgundy) with one side having a zip & another having a snap pocket.
Downsides....no feet! WT*...a bag like this with no feet! Not cool.
For me, I would prefer no haircalf at all. I particularly would have preferred the backside to not have anything but smooth leathers. One of my main worries is the wear that side will get as I doubt I'll hand carry much.
Okay, enough rants...onto photos. Would love to know your thoughts!

The lack of feet would bug me to no end and I also wish the back side of all the patchwork bags was smooth--but I'm loving the design of the patchwork this go around so I'd probably vote to keep it and either hand carry or try to be super careful about letting it rub up against you as you walk.
