Twinkle Twinkle - Vintage Silver Black & White Crystal Star Stud Earrings. .  These cute earrings are crafted from silver metal,(most likely surgical steel posts),  featuring two faceted crystals, and Vintage styling. The pretty earrings are a classic stud design. They have a post and cupped backing for pierced ears. The crystals are clear and bright and the surround is in the form of a black and white star. The Vintage earrings are unique and fun, just like the 1980s! 

Rhinestones which are also known as diamantes or paste date back as far as the thirteenth century where they were first made from Czechoslovakian or Bohemian hand blown glass. The term rhinestone came along later, when rock crystals were discovered in and around the shores of the river Rhine in Austria.

Crystals are solids that have ions, atoms and molecules arranged in a regular way, which extend in three dimensions. Rhinestones are generally made of crystals but some Rhinestones are made of glass or acrylic. Rrhinestone has a foil or metal backing that reflects light and gives the stone more glitter.
