I got these in 18K Yellow Gold plated and they are as lovely as I imagined them would be. On top of that, the comfort offered by the leverbacks make me forget I have them on most of the time. I don't like to change out my jewelry so I sleep and shower in my jewelry for months at a time. With gold plating technology so advanced these days, I can pay a fraction of the price as compared to solid gold jewelry but they look and feel/weigh just like the solid gold ones. If these ever tarnish or the gold falls off, I will update my review. I got these on 4/23/2018 and have been wearing them since then.
