Amazon Essentials Platinum Plated Sterling Silver Cushion Cut Cubic Zirconia Stud Earrings

I bought these because I have been looking for a pair of CZ studs that don't have that cheap fake look to them. After finding these and seeing that they're platinum plated I decide to take a chance. I really wanted a pair for my Halloween costume but not something that was so big that I couldn't wear them anywhere else. These are a pretty substantial size (I was expecting bigger but these are still really nice). They have a good weight to them and don't feel cheap. The setting is tight and high quality too. I could see how these might be a bit much for some people (especially those who try to not wear flashy jewelry) but if you like bling and either are too scared to wear the real thing that's this size or don't want to pay for it, these are a great alternative and are pretty hard to discern from the real deal. I think these would be fine to wear to the office or for a night out. For evening I prefer more bling so I'm hoping I can find this identical pair in a larger size but these will still get a lot of mileage. The cushion cut along with the setting makes them look slightly square but it's a nice compromise if you don't like round but don't want to compromise the sparkle (fire) in the square. I fall into this category and love them. Great buy. Take a look at the customer image on the earlobe- very accurate if you're trying to get an idea.

The earrings are beautiful. The backing for the earrings is not good, but the earrings themselves are beautiful so I’m using some of my own backing.

Love these earrings. The clarity is amazing.The size is perfect if you're not looking for something that's too big but they are also not too small.They are perfect size for every day.Wear or for any special occasion. They have a quality post and do not agitate my sensitive skin. I would definitely buy these again. These are perfect for me.Because I often lose earrings, they are economically enough that I don't get too upset.And wouldn't mind having to replace it if I lost it.

Nice earrings. The earring backs are a little loose and don't feel super secure which is why I rated 4 stars. All in all I like them and am happy with my purchase.

These earrings are great! They have sparkle and really cut up in the light. Not as much fire as the real thing, but they are very close. The prong setting looks like white gold or platinum. Unless you hang out with jewelers or someone with a trained eye, or you tell someone, no one will know these are fakes. These studs are very appropriate for everyday use. Each individual stone is exactly 6mm in lengh and width, which is just a hair under 1/4 quarter of an inch. Each individual stud looks to be about one carat. They don't feel heavy on my ear. They are a believeable size and can pass for the real thing. If I had gotten a 5mm stud, as I had originally planned, I would have been very unhappy with the smaller size. The backings are snug and secure. I may buy a disk backing just to make the stud stand up a little more. But, if I don't, the earrings will still look good. I have slightly larger genuine stones reserved for special occasions, so if I lose one of these during everyday use, I won't be heartbroken. P.S.: I had a bad experience with the U.S. Post Office delivering these, but Amazon stepped in and took care of the problem promptly and courteously.

Ok but arrived loose in a baggie. No sticker that they were platinum plated. No wow factor. It looked like the seller took them off an earring pack of multiple earrings and sold them individually. Do not buy from this seller.

Love it. It shines bright and resembles a real diamond. I lose my earrings often, so I did not want to spend a lot of money on real diamonds. These are definitely prettier than my white sapphire studs that costs $200. Pros: Price! For $20, you get a pair of beautiful and classic earrings. Hypoallergenic. I am ultra sensitive to fake jewelry, but this did not irritate my ears at all. Cons: The backs to the studs are a little lose. It's not bad and I don't think it will slide out, but it could be a little sturdier. Overall: Love it! The 1cttw was the perfect size. It's classy and you can dress it up or down. Best of all -- it glisten like a diamond.

I am a real person, I paid for these earrings and I have very sensitive ears so I was extremely skeptical. I have to say I’m shocked at how great they look, how they haven’t bothered my ears at all, and they haven’t tarnished or lost shine and it’s been about a month. I will definitely update this review if they turn green or start hurting my ears. I will buy these over and over as I lose them, because I can never lose a real carat again. That is the worst feeling. Such a waste. A stud earring is tiny and so easily lost if you’re like me and keep them in all day every day. I have woken up missing an earring and now it won’t be the end of the world. Highly recommended
