Hi, in case you have experience purchasing similar types of Indian style chocolate paved diamond earrings from Ross Simons - are they nice or not in real life? Do they look authentic (do they sparkle) or come across like costume jewelry?

Ross Simons are having a super deal on these. However, I had the experience buying pricier diamond drop earrings from them, they did not look so special and I had to incur the hassle of return.

Hi! I bought these earrings from Ross Simons back in June and I absolutely ADORE them! They look much better in person and sparkle like crazy!!! I tried to capture the sparkle without much luck. I get tons of compliments on these and they are super versatile. I have also been unlucky with Ross Simons in the past with some earrings and hadn't purchased from them in a long time but I was really wanting a pair of earrings like this and they seemed to have some of the best prices. I am really happy with this purchase! Good luck!! HTH!!!

Hi jmaemonte, really great to hear! Real life feedback is the best! If you don't mind, how much were your earrings? I think they increased prices on your specific ones. You made a great deal!

Wow, you're right, they did increase the price. I paid $1396.00 in June. I really do love them and I am contemplating getting a different style too.

Lucky you! Now it's over $2000. The earrings I'm contemplating are similar but not identical to the one you bought. Less cara for onet. But seems from the same source, and your experience gives me confidence this time it will work out alright.

i really like them! I have a lot of pieces from RS and am rarely disappointed with appearance or quality. You may want to have a trusted jeweler tighten the prongs of the diamonds - the only thing I have had a problem with at RS is some loose progs, but i just have my mom's jeweler tighten them and all is well

They are marvelous!

I used to buy tons of jewelry from R/S back in the day (1990's, before gold skyrocketed!). The past few years, though, they have little gold, and the prices seem rather steep for what they do have. Their catalogs just didn't excite me they way they used to. At any rate, I never had a problem with their stuff--it was always very nice. In fact, the very reason I own all of my rough-cut ruby jewelry is due to seeing the back page of one of their catalogs about 4 years ago. I thought, "Hmmm....gotta get me some of that!" Of course, you know me--I by-passed them, and found the very same pieces on eBay much cheaper! :biggrin:

I miss buying from R/S.
