I bought these earrings as a present for a girlfriend of mine who likes big stud earrings. When these arrived, they were significantly smaller than what I expected - to be fair, Amazon does have their dimensions written down, but I did not have my millimeter ruler handy & from the pictures provided, I assumed they were going to be larger. The color of the earrings that I received was not as vivid as the picture - the earrings I received were a very pale blue, unlike the radiant blue pictured. The earrings are beautiful and well-made, just not quite what I was expecting.
