The stones are bright and clear, and the workmanship is incredible. I begrudgingly returned them because the proportions weren't right for my face. But I highly recommend them to anyone who can rock bold earrings.
I have a pair myself, and purchased another for a friend's birthday. She loves them, too. Lovely details and craftsmanship, and so versatile. The packaging is also amazing and makes gift-giving a pleasure!
The colors are vibrant as depicted in photo on NOVICA site. The size was spot on correct. The sweater is not only beautiful but warm as well for Wisconsin winters!
