What beautiful stones it is so sad the hardware of the earring was designed and made so poorly.  Basically, they are two parts that are connected, but they come detached so easily.  I could see this so I moved the 2 parts gently and low and behold they came apart (not designed to come apart though). I looked at the other earring and same thing, looked so fragile and would have certainly come apart.  Too bad would have been great earrings but I had to return them.  Hopefully they reengineer the earring hardware.
