It goes without saying that this seller offers their jewelry at unbeatable prices! However, I was disappointed with the quality of the earrings I purchased. Yes they are 2 carat cubic zirconia stones set in a square basket in nickle-free sterling silver plated with platinum/rhodium just as described. However, the stones are very lackluster, dull, almost look like plastic! This combined with the very large size makes these earrings look fairly cheap. I wish the seller had disclosed a measurement of the stones, because even though it was made clear that each earring was 2 carats (for a total weight of 4 carats) it was hard for me to picture the actual size. Each side of the square-shaped stone measures approximately 7mm. The diagonal diameter is 10mm! Had I known they were this large, I probably would not have purchased them. (Reminds me of a hip-hop/rapper's earring.)Furthermore, the earrings' posts are not very sturdy--after sleeping in mine, the post on one of the earrings got considerably bent. I was able to reshape it, but this also adds to the cheap-feeling of the earrings. I rated these earrings a 4 based on the incredible deal the seller offers. However, if I was rating the product independently and as an isolated piece of jewelry, I would have given them a 2/5.
