I have been admiring these these and a few other pieces of Asscher cut jewelry for awhile now. I finally ordered these and received them today. They are lovely!
They are a bit on the larger side though, for a somewhat believable stone. The information was confusing about their carat weight. The page heading said 2 cttw, implying 1 carat each, and the specifications below stated they were 6 cttw, or 3 carats each, which I would say is correct. I've gotten 3 ct cubic zirconias before in a princess cut and these do not look as big. I assume this is due to the Asscher cut being a deeper stone than a princess cut one. They measure about 5/16 square, a bit bigger than the 1/4 inch another reviewer mentioned. That all considered, they are a beautifully cut stone and have a great deal of sparkle, especially when light is directed at them.
The post is just slightly offset on the backs so they will drop below my earlobe in one position. I have short lobes though and everyone may not have this happen. The other issue is that they are heavy and tend to fall forward. I replaced the backs with a silver bullet clutch with pad and this holds them more upright and tightly and improves the positioning immensely. I recommend this for anyone that purchases these and have used the padded bullet clutches with other "crown-type" set earrings. You can find them here, on Amazon, or in most department stores for only a few dollars.
These earrings appear to be sturdily made and the platinum plated sterling silver setting is super shiny and won't tarnish.. I like them a lot! Four and a half stars with a half star off for the puny backs.
Time to shop for some other Asscher cut pieces to go with these!
10-27-15- I added a couple pictures to compare to the size of a dime and with the backs I suggested.

Whoa! Let's start with the designs on the side of the earrings. Plus the crystals are hearts and have beautiful details. So freaking cute and creative. I would wear them for a classic look.

My only problem with them is that I'm used to wearing leverback style earrings, so I keep hitting them with the phone receiver any time I have to answer a call at work- but that's a problem with me instead of a problem with the earrings!
Highly recommended - super pretty earrings at a very reasonable price

These are wonderfully made and were a great birthday gift to myself. The cut is gorgeous, with a lot of flash and light bouncing around, and the bow detail on the sides lets more light in from around the stone. They are not too heavy on my ears despite the stones being a little larger than I was expecting them to be(I've attached a picture for reference - my ears are pretty average-sized.) They do pull away from the earlobe a little more than I like, so I swapped disc style backs for the provided wing style backs and now they're much more supported. The prongs seem secure and neither stone is at all loose in the setting.Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2015
