I was more than pleased with these earrings. I was afraid they'd look cheap and tacky but they are gorgeous. The stones are much bigger than expected and they sparkle brilliantly. The wires are very sturdy looking as well. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the stones have a light blue hue instead of the clear look I was led to believe I'd get. As these are intended to be a gift I am willing to be more flexible on the color issue. Had I bought them to go with a specific outfit I might be a little unhappy, but I think they will be appreciated as is. Overall a very nice and totally inexpensive pair of lovely earrings.

Just a footnote here....The earrings were a big hit with the recipent and really look so nice on her. She was very happy with them and was amazed at how much they glistened and sparkled.
