My original review below was very good, however I have had these for just under two months and one of the earing hooks broke off the earings.  I really don't think that earings should only last two months with regular use.

These earings are lovely.  They have a nice realistic sparkle and have the appearance of being "the real thing".  The craftsmanship is good and I definitely like the way they look.  They are simple yet elegant.. and I am super happy with the purchase... I do wish I could buy the same in a gold version though!
