Diamonds are very difficult to evaluate, as you get exactly what you pay for.  You want a beautiful diamond? You pay a LOT of money.  You want a really cheap looking diamond? you pay a lot less money, but still too much.

These diamonds are just as advertised -for the price you pay, they are not unreasonable, but I cannot recommend them.

The earrings are 1/5 carat.  This is really the smallest size of diamond they advertise -and it is still even smaller than that! When you size earrings you divide that number by HALF.  So each of these earrings is only 1/10 of a carat, which is pretty small.

The color is actually ok, and is the one thing that I think is fair for this price range.  They are J-K, which is near colorless, or faint yellow.  I put them against a white sheet of paper, in bright natural light, and I couldn't detect any yellow, though I could tell they were not white.

The clarity is TERRIBLE.  This is the lowest possible grade of diamond, and it shows.  They are not transparent at all, and they have very little to no sparkle.  You are much better off buying cubic zircona in a beautiful silver or white gold setting than these; they just look like a milky quartz, and not at all like the diamonds you imagine wearing.

The setting is bad.  When the diamonds arrived one of the settings was bent.  Now the clasp comes off way too easily, and I imagine the stud will fall out before too long.  If you are getting real diamonds, do yourself a favor and buy studs that spin on to the clasp.  There is no way those will come off.

If you want something beautiful for the same price, I'd recommend taking a look at some other stones like blue topaz, and tanzanite.  If you need the sparkle, go for cubic zircona (just not too big, or people know they are fake, because they'd be five thousand dollar earrings).

Or, if you must have diamonds, spring for higher quality ones, and at a minimum, those that do NOT have a color grade of I1, I2, or I3.  They must be ANY grade but I.  For example, for about $40 more (at this time) you can get something like this which is BIGGER, AND BETTER in every way:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/1-4-Carat-Round-Solitaire-Diamond-Earrings-in-14K-White-Gold-in-Push-Back-4-Prong-Mounting-0-25-Carat-F-G-Color-SI2-I1-Clarity/dp/B008BKWSMO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">1/4 Carat Round Solitaire Diamond Earrings in 14K White Gold in Push Back & 4 Prong Mounting ( 0.25 Carat F-G Color SI2-I1 Clarity )</a>
