When I first received these earrings in the mail, I was confused--I couldn't remember ordering any earrings that looked like diamonds. It took me a minute to remember that I'd ordered blue topaz, and to see the pale blue shining in these drop earrings. It reminds me of sea glass made from old Coke bottles, but a bit more faint. The drop is almost the size of a #2 pencil eraser. Overall, I've decided I like them, even though I was expecting something more colorful.
