Before buying this item I looked over the reviews (as per usual) and was somewhat tentative in purchasing it myself.
I received the necklace and earrings in short time and looked them over apprehensively but found that they were beautiful and delicate.
The pendant and earrings are smaller than I imagined (but no smaller than the size description - my mental spatial concept must be incorrect) but there is nothing wrong with them.
I'm not sure if some of the other reviewers expected real gold and diamonds for $15.00 but the jewelry is not terrible looking.  I bought this set for a friend for Christmas so I can't review the durability of these items but as for the way they look they beautiful and delicate.
I imagine that this design would look spectacular with real gold and real diamonds but then again it wouldn't be priced below $20.00 and I couldn't afford it anyway probably.
The moral of this review is: you get what you pay for, the pendant IS small but it is also very beautiful.
