These earrings were purchased for a distant family friend so I won't return them. However, I wouldn't advise people to buy them for anyone near and dear. The diamond bits look more like quartz (can't expect a lot for the price though) and the clasp on the pair I received is really quite hard to operate, have to pull harder than expected to open the hoop inorder to put it on. The silver looks a bit cheaper in person. This doesn't come highly reccomended.
