These earrings are dainty but bold.  The stones are bright and brilliant.  They are set tight in the mountings so I am not worried about loosing a stone.  I got these to were in multiple piercings and they show up just fine, not to big, not to small.  I am just really impressed with how bright and colorful the stones are, I have gotten a lot on compliments on them, the first night I have worn them!  A GREAT value!
