This is my first review but feel this offering was worth the time. I purchased another set of sapphire earrings for my wife, from another vendor, and was so disappointed I returned them. I found this set and even though there were no reviews, I thought I'd give them a try. When they arrived, I was thrilled! The sapphire stones were much bigger than I imagined. They had a nice dark hue, unlike some of the sapphires you see out there that look milky or transparent. Best of all - they matched each other! There's nothing worse than having a set of earrings where the stones don't match. They arrived in a classy ribbon tied box inside a velvety pouch and came with a certificate of authenticity. At $60, I think these were an incredible buy.
