These earrings were nicer than I expected them to be.

The stones are relatively clear with a rich violet color--not at all pale or uneven or with significant inclusions.  The backs are comfortable and the sterling silver setting is of decent quality.  The amethysts are round with a 5 mm diameter while the setting is heart-shaped.

The photo gives an accurate impression of the quality if not the scale.  They are not chunky but are not miniscule, either.

Overall, I am pleased with these earrings.  They would make a nice gift, especially for teenagers with pierced ears.
