Questions about this piece

Are these sold as a pair?

Yes. You receive two matching earrings.

Are the stones real diamonds?

No. They are imitation stones, such as cubic zirconia, and are disclosed as imitation.

Is the gold color permanent?

Plated, vermeil, and gold-filled finishes are layers over another metal. Gold-filled layers are thick and last for years; plating is thinner and wears gradually with friction, lotion, and chlorine.

Can I wear them in the shower or pool?

Take them off to swim, bathe, or use a hot tub: water, soap, and chlorine wear plating faster and chlorine in pools and hot tubs can weaken karat gold alloys over time. If they get wet, rinse in clean water and pat dry.

How fast will it arrive?
