Nice earrings!
I had my jeweler check out these earrings for color & clarity. Her findings are exactly as advertised. However she said that one earring had more inclusions than the other one so they do not match. However since they are small earrings it is not noticeable. They are a nice size & have a nice sparkle for everyday wear. I am pleased with my purchase.

Great Huggie EarringEarrings are very well constructed and stay in my ears my long hair does not pull them out when it gets tangled in them. I sleep in these earrings and I can't feel them at all. They are small hoops which I wanted but are very noticable in the ear. Great size to wear daily. The diamonds are white with no seen flaws to my eyes.

disappointed
if I wanted mediocre quality for this price I could've gone to virtually any jewelry store. I thought one of the advantages of shopping on Amazon was a better deal. I guess when it comes to shopping for jewelry I'll stick with my local gemologist.

First Impression WOW!I happened to catch this item in the lightning deals this past Saturday. Never buying jewelry from Amazon I wasn't sure what to expect. I opened the package today and my first impression is WOW! The stones are set really well and the stones themselves are really nice. Sure to be a hit on Christmas!

my mistake
I like the jackets just fine but I made a mistake in ordering them. I did not realize that 1/2 carat meant 1/4th carat each side my studs are 1/2 carat each side and the jackets do not fit them well. don't make that same mistake!

no carbon deposits pleaseThe earrings are beautiful and brilliant with the exception of one stone where I can see a carbon deposit.
This should not be visible in a SI I rating for clarity. Perhaps that is why they were such a bargain.

Small and prettyThese earrings are very small maybe somewhere between 3 and 4mm each. They do appear white (I don't see any yellow tinting) with a slight slight bit of grey which I prefer over a super white look (as you might sometimes find in a cz). These earrings catch the light nicely showing a bit of rainbow effect. They aren't super super sparkly or faceted but they do possess shine and detail. I am very happy with these earrings as they are just what I wanted: something petite and real set in yellow gold and with a nice clean and "believably" sparkly look! I also like the fit of the earrings backs very tight and secure.

This tiny price for these flawless stones?!? Lab created forever.Ever been to a restaurant that offers wild caught salmon? What about farm raised salmon? You know which I prefer? The fresher fish! But if both are equally fresh then I don't care where it came from and it boils down to price. The farm raised salmon will probably be cheaper because artificially increasing the supply in a predictable way will lower the price due to basic economic principles.
The same principles apply to precious stones only much more dramatically. I cannot believe I got these stones at this price when it goes for twice as much (easily) at a store where their sapphires are "caught in the wild". The wonder of lab creation gives you a stone identical down to the molecular level of a traditional sapphire. Did I mention that this means you get a flawless inclusion-free product? And I feel I've never seen a sapphire quite this shade of pleasing blue like International Klein Blue or lapis lazuli. The cherry on top is the guarantee of not having to worry about possible "blood diamonds" and other jewels of similarly morally questionable origin.
This jewel is 6mm wide and only $170. It is gorgeous. I will never buy another traditional stone. Lab created forever!

Very nice earringsI ordered these earrings a little over two months ago and I am very happy with them. They are very light weight and they do not pull on your ears. The size is perfect; very "in" right now. You do have to pull on the stem pretty hard to get them off because the clasp is very tight. However so far so good. They have not broken and the clasp has not become loose or anything. I even accidentally left them in a pocket once and they were put through the washing machine. They were completely fine afterward. I do wish the earrings had been about $20 less expensive. But overall I love my earrings!

Really inconspicuous...These earrings are too small and thin to do justice to the unique design. For the same reason they are stiff and do not dangle like one would expect looking at the picture. On the other hand the diamond quality is pretty decent for the price but will only glitter with enough sunlight and not indoors. I got them during the black diamond sale for about $100 but subsiquently returned them for a refund.

Very CuteI got this for my girlfriend on Valentines Day. I did get the black Dragonfly necklace before this and was very happy with it. It has the same black diamonds and matched well. She loves these earrings. They are very cute. They are just the right size - a little less than a half-inch wide and about 1/2" tall. I got this product exactly as described and pictured. There were no reviews so I was a bit worried. Both myself and my other half give these 5 stars.

If you think these are small please read!I love black diamonds and have three pairs of earrings of different sizes all bought online. I've noticed that several reviewers here were surprised that these 1cttw black diamonds are smaller than expected. Please note before you buy so you don't end up disappointed:
-#1: These earrings are advertised as 1 CTTW meaning 1 Carat TOTAL Weight. In other words each stone is approximately 1/2 carat for a total combined weight of 1 carat. As anyone who has bought jewelry online before can tell you stud earrings are usually advertised this way.
-#2: Black diamonds are naturally denser than white diamonds and therefore weigh more (about 1/3 more). Thus a 1 ct black diamond will be approximately the same size as a 2/3 ct white diamond. Many online sellers provide the stone's diameter in millimeters as well as the carat weight. It would be very helpful if Amazon would list measurements on their stones as well but until they catch on just keep the weight difference in mind when buying black diamonds.
One more thing for those complaining about the price I priced a pair of earrings similar to these at Boscov's this weekend just to see how good a deal I got. Boscov's regular price on 1 cttw black diamonds in 14k gold was $799.00 but they were on sale for $391.00. Compared to that Amazon's price is a steal as long as you know what you're buying.
Those who do their homework beforehand are rarely disappointed with their purchases.
Happy Holidays!

Quite PleasedI bought this diamond stud earrings for my baby sister for Christmas. Received them even earlier than scheduled.
They came well-packed and the quality of the earrings seems to be exactly as advertised. I am not a professional jeweler but both my sis and I are quite satisfied.

Hit or miss with low-priced diamondsWith this inexpensive grade of diamonds visible flaws can be very likely as can off-colors. Combine that with cloudiness rather than the clearly refracting internal facets of a good diamond and the stones are dull and lifeless.
Unfortunately the slightly larger size of 1/2cttw makes these flaws more apparent. The result is hit-or-miss depending on your particular stones. Mine was more miss than hit so I returned them rather than giving the flawed earrings to my wife. I also got a pair of the 1/3 cttw diamonds (very similar and cheaper): 14k White Gold Round Diamond Stud Earrings (1/3 cttw K-L Color I3 Clarity) . That pair worked very well and was bright and clear as shown by shining a flashlight into the stones.
Amazon's lenient return policy applies equally to jewelry of course.
For me at least these 1/2 cttw earrings didn't work. Not recommended.
