I purchased these at a very low price at a time when Amazon was also throwing in a free matching pendant & chain.  So, for the twenty dollars I spent... it was a great deal.  The color of the pearls is a nice ivory white and the sterling is unmarred.  The pearls themselves do have flaws... more noticeable on the pendant than on these earrings, but still noticeable.  The size is dainty but identicle with each earring; neither looks bigger/smaller than the other.  Overall, a great purchase for the price.
