rubes2112 Rough Rock Total Posts: 2 Last Post: 10/21/2002 Member Since: 10/21/2002	Greetings, Just found this forum and was hoping I could get some opinions regarding an engagement ring I just purchased. I'm a diamond-novice so any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. A few days after I bought the ring, my fiance' and I noticed that when you look at the diamond from any side, about 4/5 of the way down there is a line going through the stone and everything below to the tip is slightly cloudy (maybe even milky). From the top it seems like a beautiful diamond. Very firey and brilliant (as far as we can tell) The specs from the GIA cert. are the following : Round Brilliant Measurement 6.93-6.97 x 4.28mm Weight : 1.27 carat Depth : 61.6 % Table : 60% Girdle : Thin to slightly thick Clarity: SI1 Faceted Culet : none Polish : Good Color : G Symmetry : Very Good Fluorescence : none Comments : Additional clouds are not shown Price of diamond: $6400 Any and all comments are appreciated. I just want to make sure the diamond is what they said it is and if I got a decent deal. Thanks! Rubes

There is a great site called : www.goodoldgold.com Click on the 4c's, then Clarity, then Clarity Tips. There is a picture of just what you are talking about.
