I bought these earrings for my girlfriend for Christmas which she liked but thought that the sapphire was a darker blue than what she usually wore. I thought so too as the picture that is shown is a nice cobalt blue. In actuality the blue is very dark. Other than that these earrings are versatile. They can be worn with the tiny hoops alone or the dangling sapphire part can serve as an earring jacket. The diamonds are very small but they do sparkle. All in all they are an attractive look. Just wish the stone was a lighter blue.
