Colorless diamonds

[Merty]

Question on Colorless If I get a D color with SI1 in clarity, wont I be able to see inclusions since the color is so clear? Thanks,

Color has nothing to do with the visibility of inclusions unless you get down into the very low color grades. Some D SI1 stones will be eyeclean and some will not. Depends on the type and location of inclusions. That is why you need magnified pictures of the stone as well as a gemologist examining the stone in person.

Ditto - the color has nothing to do with it. Diamonds can be lower color and still be crystal clear; it all depends on the location of the inclusions. I have a D SI1 (inclusion off to the side) and I have a hard time finding it even with a loupe!
