Hi Onemax

Remarks in the comments section such as twinning wisps not shown are mentioned for the sake of completeness as they are too insignificant to plot, so not an issue - but check concerning the grade making twinning wisps and whether the diamond is eyeclean or not to your standards. Can you get an Idealscope image for this diamond?

I would ask the vendor if the diamond is eyeclean. Assuming it is, it should be fine...but you might want to confirm with the vendor as those must be some serious feathers/wisps (can't tell because of the poor image quality) (the plotted ones) if it was the clarity making thing for an SI2. And anything not plotted on the report usually isn't significant.

Otherwise it looks like a nice choice!

Yes, check with the vendor for eye cleanliness. Twinning wisps can be low or high relief depending on what they're composed of--twinning wisps are a series of inclusions like pinpoints, clouds, and crystals. I'm guessing that the ones that are plotted have a fair amount of relief, but still may not be eye visible. The plot shows 3 large ones that cross into the table area--that's where you might see them with the naked eye--the crown area not so much.

The vendor said that he guarentee''s this is an Eyeclean stone and that the twinning wisps cannot be seen with the naked eye. I am ordeing it today and will post pictures as soon as I recieve it.

Unfortunately I can''t get an ideal scope. Is there anyone I can go to to have one done? Preferrable in the Toronto Area?

Also should I worry about the Medium Blue Floresence on a "G" colour stone?

Thanks again!

Thanks!

Ditto no worries with the fluorescence! As to the IS you could order one for $25 if you wanted, or just see what you think when you get the diamond!

Great thanks so much! I love this site!

I can''t wait to receive the diamond. I hope it is as nice as the numbers suggest!

Will post pictures one I get them!

Make sure you give the stone a really good look in different lights before you finalise the sale, just to be sure that the stone is eyeclean to your standards.

Then, come back here and post pics!!!
