Thank you all for the nice comments!
I have to say the only drawback so far are the earring backs. They are like the ones on the sweets where you have to push in the sides of the back in order to get it to slide on. It's a PITA.

PITA lol.

I'm actually surprised to hear that you don't like the backings. That is one of the things I like most about the sweets and mini frivole. I feel it makes them safe. I lost my diamond solitaire from one ear before as the backings were not so secure. Perhaps it's just me but I prefer these backings [emoji4]

You can order butterfly earring backs for the sweets and they are really secure. I had the most difficult time with those French backs and was able to order butterfly earring backs in white gold and yellow gold through my SA.

Thanks! That is good to know, and I may do that soon.
My vintage Alhambra earrings are bad also, pinching my ears to the point that I have to wait a couple of days before I can wear another pair. Does this happen to anyone else?

It happened to me. Upon the suggestion of members of tpf, I requested that the standard posts be changed to a longer , thinner post. I did this my vintage alhambra pave yg and my wg pave frivole. What a difference! I can now wear my earrings every day without pain or redness. Changing the posts was sufficient for me although my SA offered to adjust the clasp as well if I wished it to be loosened a bit. I was in actual pain wearing my beautiful earrings, now they are perfect. Suggest you approach your SA , they should be able to solve this for you.
