These lasted for  a couple of hours.  They fell apart practically immediately.

Love the look of these natives, however, after just a couple of months of wear the gold glitter (on one shoe) started to peel and has only gotten worse. :(

These are very nice looking - initially I would have given them 5 stars but the hook broke within the first few months of wear.  For 14k gold bonded earrings, I would have hoped the clasp would be better made.

Nice while they (2) lasted, which was just a couple months. Couldn't return them, so that was wasted money. This was a while back; maybe they're better now, but keep an eye on the calendar just in case...

I bought these about 2 months ago and they worked great for a while.  We put them inside of a built-in and left them turned on almost non-stop for the last 2 months.  The end of the strand closest to the power supply has turned yellow and has changed the color of the lights.  The power supply used was the one that comes with the kit.  If you are going to buy these and leave them on a lot, I recommend turning them down or get a weaker power supply.

I've had my gold plated opal studs for a few months now and worn them a handful of times.  They are (were) pretty, princess cut opals of a nice size and color.  I was going to wear them today and found that the metal setting and ear nuts had turned black, just sitting in the box that they arrived in.  I honestly couldn't tell, or remember, if they were gold or silver settings but polished them (with Sparkle silver polish) to remove the black and now they look in between, sort of a dull silver.  I never did get the ear nuts cleaned and shiny again.

I am sad!  I liked these a lot and I'm disappointed that the plating didn't last.  I usually trust Amazon Collection to be of decent quality but these fell short, in my opinion.  The silver may be different.  I can't say.

I give these three and a half stars as I do like the opals and the stones haven't fallen out, even with a rather vigorous cleaning with a toothbrush.  They are still wearable but not shiny or gold like I when I purchased them.  I'm not sensitive to metals but would be cautious if I were.

This is my review of the 0.22 Carat (ctw) 10K Yellow Gold Real Round earrings. Bought these for a friend for a very special birthday present. This is the second pair I purchased. The first pair had a defective clasp and was returned. Would not "snap" into place. This is my review of the second pair which arrived safely.

This pair of earrings is pleasant to look at. They are tiny. The small size my friend tells me means they can be worn to sleep and you won't have to worry about them falling off or catching on anything. Well, maybe just the later. This second pair has a clasp problem similar to the first pair. Once the clasp is opened it will not 'snap' into the catch. It's really a very simple mechanism. If the parts are not shaped correctly the clasp does not close with a 'snap' and may not be secure. For the money that should not be a problem you or I need to worry about.

The appearance is fine. Be prepared to look at the earrings and be expecting that they are tiny. I guess that's by design. Light catching the diamonds just so gives off that nice diamond sparkly look. They're available in white or yellow gold. I chose the yellow as I thought the overall experience would be prettier.

The small jewelry box that they come is black plastic or something similar. It is not pretty or nice to look at. It's just a box. There were big white stickers all over the box and peeling them off leaves glue behind. I'm not talking here about a shipping box or packaging this is the case that comes with the earrings to store them in. Most jewelry comes in much more attractive boxes and without glue all over it.

Overall, my experience was disappointing. Purchased these as a birthday present for a friend. Had to send one pair back because they were broken. Kind of takes the magic out of a nice birthday present. The second pair as discussed above is a little better quality but still was not perfect or close to perfect.

Would not recommend these to anyone.

I read lots of the reviews for these before purchasing and was quite excited to receive them.  They came on time as expected and were packaged as expected.  However, I have to give these a 1 out of 5 stars because only one of them is really any good.  Four of them have crystals that are set crooked (some of them to the point of fearing that they'll snag something and fall out).  One of them has a very noticeable spot where there is just NO gold plating.  It's silver base metal showing through.

The magnet on them is pretty decent for this size (8mm) on all of them but one. I would just use the one for a lightweight bracelet.

I also bought the 10mm set as well and they came in MUCH better condition.  They are exactly how I expected them to be.  Covered entirely in their gold plating, beautiful color to the plating.  The crystals are all set straight.  Some have larger holed and you can see a dark edge around them but that's to be expected.

I'm torn about the risk of purchasing these again since the quality was great on one set and TERRIBLE on another.  I'm assuming I just got a bad batch, but how many times am I going to get a bad batch of I keep ordering?  I don't think I can use these 8mm clasps for anything to wear myself, let alone to sell.

Lovely! Not quite as much sparkle as I hoped for but still sparkly. Posts are average size, and earring backs stay on well. I try not to over polish so the plating does not wear off to quickly... and it will, this is my second pair. The first pair from another brand lasted a year and I am happy with that. I ordered the 1 carat and they are the perfect size to be believable and look real and classy but noticeable still. I will order again.

*** UPDATE*** I have not worn these much. Maybe a little over a dozen times. The gold has completely worn off and has turned into an ugly dark metal color. The posts as well, and they now really irritate my ear lobes and make them red and itchy. I clean the gold with specific gold jewelry cleaner and an very gentle so there is no reason they should have faded this quickly. Im sad :( Dropped the rating because after 12 wears, I have to throw these away.

I do not suggest you buy these.  They are beautiful, but after wearing them for a month, one of the earrings disappeared due to the backing not being very secure. Bummer!

I was terribly disappointed in these. The color was really pretty, more a light lavender than what is pictured but still pretty. Unfortunately, I only got to wear these studs one time. After having them in for less than half an hour,  I leaned over my kitchen table and heard something ping. The stone fell right out of the setting of one of them! If these truly are solid 14 k. white gold, then they are the cheapest white gold I've ever seen!  I have stronger costume jewelry.  Will not purchase from this seller again.

Very pretty, very substantial, very nice size. I wear them almost daily.

Update: It's now 4 months since I bought these earrings. The positive is that I still love them. But I've downgraded the stars from 5 to 3 for two reasons. First, within a month one of the earrings dented. I have no idea how it dented, since I'm very careful with them and don't sleep in them. Second, when putting them in my ears the last time one of the posts just fell off onto the floor, so they are now unwearable.

I purchased these in the yellow gold plated. I put them on around 4pm yesterday and noticed this morning at 8am, the gold had already faded and they are just silver now. I'm extremely displeased. I've had forever21 jewelry that keeps its color long than these terrible rings. I'm going to try and get my money back because I'm shocked. I know they are cheap rings, however when you are purchasing sterling silver rings that have been gold plated, you expect them to AT LEAST keep their color for 24 hours. I feel like that's not asking too much

Purchased these thinking $20 can't hurt no matter how good or bad they are. It has been about three to four weeks and they will now flicker and go out every 5 minutes or so intermittently. Tested ballasts with my one good previous bulb so i know ballasts aren't the issue. I've actually ordered a second pair already. Giving them another chance and will update this review after putting some hours on em. (And if there is no update, that means i forgot, which also means they worked out fine). Light output is great, color temperature is accurate. Let's hope the second pair does well with longevity.

I wore mine constantly with my cross, never remove to shower, etc, so that may be why the gold plating wore off; then the chain caught on a drawer pull and broke; not clasp but serpentine portion, so cannot be repaired.  Purchased 12/2014 - broken/faded 9/2015.  Maybe worth the money if you wear occasionally.

All that glitters is not gold.

When I first bought these I was actually incredibly impressed with them- sound, cancelation, and they last pretty long with out charge. Fast forward only 2 months, and now the bluetooth no longer works.
