Expert Selection earrings question

[bookworm21]

I just received my earrings that I ordered from Whiteflash, and they''re gorgeous, but one little thing keeps bothering the very edge of my brain: the fact that one of them scored a 2.1 on the HCA, measuring "very good" across the board. The other scored a 1.7 or something like that.

I don''t know if it''s my imagination or something, but I *swear* that the 2.1 sparkles somewhat less than the 1.7. Can the eye really tell such a minor difference in between two stones? Or am I being paranoid?

Thanks everyone.

Here''s the link to the stone that''s causing my mind so much unrest:

anything is possible..
i don''t think anyone could even guess what your eyes or your mind are seeing. if it were me, i''d be driving everyone i knew crazy by asking them if they could see a difference! my guess is they wouldn''t, but i would ask none the less!
i hope you love your earrings cinderella. that''s what it''s all about!

Thanks Belle! I guess I will be driving everyone nuts before deciding whether I''m going to keep it. I''m hoping it''s my imagination though.

And I do love them! But I can see myself experiencing earring shrinkage in about 6 months!
