UPDATED: Updated to 1 star because most of the “chips” have fallen out.

I just received this pair of earrings a few hours ago and felt compelled to post a review. I already knew going into it that it wouldn’t be of top quality and that the stones would be tiny chips of inferior quality. The part that leaves me riding the line is the fact that the “design” is just so “bumpy” and it overwhelms the whole earring. The earrings are only half an inch long and very very thin. Once you remove them from the baggy you will initially be UNDERWHELMED and regret your decision to purchase but after long and careful examination you will see that they are simple very thin hoops with small chips on the front and inside curve. I keep on stressing the fact that there are diamond chips there because at first glance the “bumpy” surface masks the chips. It seems to be a visual trick; I can guarantee you that a jewler’s loop is not necessary to view the diamonds.

At this price point, I would look elsewhere but if you catch them at 30 percent off as I did, then go for it. These were purchased for my soon to be 6 year old daughter and I hope that they will not be too large. A positive note is that the clasp is very secure and after the initial shock you will find them very pretty and sweet.

Recommend ONLY for the right buyer that understands the aesthetics and that these shouldn’t be purchased a girlfriend/wife for Valentine’s Day or any occassion to impress unless she specifically requested them. They seem very sturdy and you will be satisfied only if you understand what type of purchase it is.

Delicate, very pretty, November 23, 2010

Just an all-around pretty, nice, dainty set of earrings, the diamonds shine nicely with direct light. They were a little smaller in diameter/overall size than we thought, but very pretty and the stones are well matched and clear.
