OK, here they be. ACA''s
G and H
.583 and .587 5.37 diameter on both.

I don''t know why, but getting an ear shot proved harder than last time, who knows. Did the best I could. Forgot and wore a basically black sweater, so there are some interesting colors..

Thank you all!

Personally, I think they look bigger in real life. Looking at the two pics in here, I don''t see as big a difference, but I noticed it as soon as I opened the box, and even my hubby said, Oh yeah, they''re definitely bigger. And he rarely notices anything that doesn''t pertain to him.

At any rate, I''m happy, glad to have it over with. And now I have a good idea about size increase, just in case I ever want to go up again, but honestly, I don''t know that I will. I know, I''m an anomaly.

ds, I wasn''t sure if you wanted ALL the specs on these, so I didn''t post them, but I''d be happy to if you want, just let me know.

That''s okay, Ellen. I know they have great numbers since they are ACA''s! My dilemma is choosing the right diameter!!

No, .75 each. And I really don''t want larger than that. I''m thinking maybe .65-.75? I''m just very uncertain for some odd reason.

What exact size are you wanting, the same as what you had, or slightly bigger (diameter wise)?

Do you think your old ones measured what they should have? What I''m getting at is, my old ones were the same ct. weight as my previous pair, but faced up smaller (were deep). Yours might of too. So I would try and use that as a guage.

So, if you want the same, it would be somewhere maybe around .60.-65., or else slightly bigger.

My old ones actually were the right size..around 5.8mm or so. I really don''t want bigger than that, and I also am not thrilled about spending $6000 on earrings. But I might if I find the perfect set. I think just under .70 would save me some money, but it is hard to find.

When I was getting shots for the fire thread, I took some regular ones too. I thought some of these deserved to be posted instead of just pitching them.
