Product Description The Almaz collection, which means ‘diamond’ in Ancient Arabic and Russian, symbolizes strength and endurance whilst maintaining femininity with a sensitivity to shape and form. 22k gold vermeil on solid sterling silver.Dinny HallDinny Hall founded her celebrated jewellery range in 1985 when barely out of Central St Martin’s School of Art where she gained a degree in jewellery design. Her ascent was fast, beginning with some stunning catwalk designs which quickly caught the attention of the fashion press. It wasn’t long before her jewellery could be seen in Liberty and Harvey Nichols in London, and top stores in New York City, Paris, Hong Kong and Tokyo. In 1989 she received the first ever British Fashion Council award for ’Accessory Designer of the year’. The distinctiveness of Dinny Hall’s talent lies in an effortless classic modernity which has kept her at the top of her field for over 27 years, still influencing many designers in the jewellery industry today.From a workshop in Soho, once the studio of Canaletto, to founding her first shop in London’s Westbourne Grove in 1992 when it was mostly junk shops- Dinny has been a trend setter and an inspiration to many. Where Dinny went others followed.Now an expert in her field, Dinny is an entrepreneur, business woman, designer, strategist, craftswoman, gemmologist, and she also knows a thing or two about retail. Dinny continues to design all the jewellery for the brand, with the help of her long term goldsmith Clare Goddard, and still has a very hands-on approach to every creative aspect of the company.Last but not least she’s mother to her teenage son Lorcan.

Good earrings, damaged packaging
I bought these as a gift and though the earrings are nice the gift box arrived ruined and I couldn't get a replacement, meaning I couldn't gift it! Disappointing

Pretty earrings..
Very pretty, well made and unusual and just the right size for every day wear.

Very shiny but quite nice
More of a very shiny bright gold than a rose gold but not bad value for money on a lightning deal

Caveat Emptor: Vermeil = gold plated, not 'proper' gold
I dislike something being described in the main headline - all you might see if buying as a lightening deal, for example - as 22 carat gold, when it is no such thing. It is gold plated.If you are happy with this, fine, but please make sure you read the full description first so that you know that you are getting silver with a teeny layer of gold - not actual gold all the way through.I would much prefer to drop to 9ct but at least have it solid. Or wear silver as silver. Call me cynical, but this feels to me as if it is being marketed in the hope no-one notices they're not getting the real thing. They do not seem to be good value for money at all.
