Kimberly Cut Rock Total Posts: 390 Last Post: 3/14/2006 Member Since: 2/25/2005	Still looking for that nice/purrrfect marquise. Got a question. How come some diamonds smaller tham 1 carat have inclusion plots and others only a dossier? I am eyeing a .83 D VVs2 with so far great proportions according to aga but I am concerned it has no plot and in the comments says" pinpoints" . Am I to assume no other inclusions exist like crystals and feathers? Thanks in advance :)

Pinpoints frequently are minute crystals, but look like pinpoints at 10x because they are so small. With VVS2 clarity you shouldn't have to worry about the nature of the inclusions, they are going to be so small it will not make any difference! Enjoy your selection! Gary www.diamondexpert.com

Right now, G.I.A. is running about a 5-6 week turnaround on DGR's, where dossiers are in and out in 2 weeks or so. If G.I.A. called it a VVS2 based on pinponts, that means the clarity grade is based on pintpoints that are loupeable through the crown. There MAY be some feathers on the Pav. or the girdle, but they will be tiny, like VVS1 size and can be ignored. Thats all!
