2.5 ct Si1 with feathers, Is this a big issue?

[gk306]

Hi all,

I've been looking at this 2.5ct rectangular radiant cut diamond for an engagement ring. The clarity is SI1 and colour G. According to the plot below the diamond has some feather inclusions. I was wondering how big of an issue from a durability perspective and look this would be. Considering its been rated SI1 by GIA, I assume that it should be pretty durable. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you.

We'd need to see magnified images of the stone and preferably a video. That stone would be a big no for me. Feathers are cracks and those are huge, even if there is no structural danger.

I saw this in person, so don't have magnified images. See below for an image in person.

Talk to your vendor about it, you can not go by the diagram to tell how bad feathers are for sure.
I have seen far worse plots where the diamond was just fine structurally and eyeclean.
There probably isn't a huge issue but there is not enough information to say for certain.
