I love these earrings! The amethysts are dark and impressive. The clasps seem to hold the earrings on tightly. I’ll bet I’m like many people…with the price of gold, I am buying mostly gold overlay these days. These were a GREAT price.
Just one thing kept them from being perfect: there was NO PENDANT offered, to match these earrings. As someone who likes to buy my jewelry in matching sets, that made it frustrating. I’ve been looking for months, for a matching pendant.

The first set I received had a cloudy stone but when I notified Amazon, they sent me a new pair overnight and I printed a label to send the defective pair back free of charge. The second pair are simply beautiful. They have a deep purple color and plenty of sparkle. The stones are very noticeable and the setting is well done. They are comfortable to wear and would make an excellent gift.

These earrings are more dressy than they appeared online, they really add a tone of richness to the outfits I wear them with. The gold is a nice deep gold colour, and the amethysts are a gorgeous deep purple. When I ordered them I thought I would wear them to work, but they are a little to fancy for my ‘business casual’ office wear, so I tend to wear them to festive occasions when I dress up a little. They are comfortable and very pretty.

I needed a birthday gift for a friend, and I thought of jewelry this year. I like these because they have a very expensive look, which is helped by the gold plating. The gemstones are dark and beautiful. The earrings are about a half inch tall, a nice size – not to big and clunky, but not so small they aren’t going to be noticed.
I also love this type of clasp. It is a lot more secure than a post or a french hook.
