Hi everyone,

After getting my ACAs, I quit wearing my smaller stud set and have sat here for a few years trying to figure out what to do with them. One consideration before I continue is that the stones aren''t exactly the same diameter or color (of course purchased pre-pricescope). I''ve thought of putting thin bezels around them and am wondering if doing so, will that outline make the size difference even more visable? The earrings have to be studied to see the difference. When I told my DH about it, he looked closely and said he could tell the difference. (right now, they''re in platinum basket settings)

If having bezels will make the diamonds look even less even, what is another option? Would lever style dangles be a better choice?

I had tried putting the earrings up on CL so I could use the $ to buy something else (since there are other jewelry pieces I want) but only weirdos responded, so that idea was a flop. . .
 
Here are the stones. The size is so slight that the camera doesn''t capture it. Though, the slight color difference is visable as one is a bit warmer than the other. They were sold as uncertified F color, but of course are warmer than my AGS F colored stones.
