i asked the dealer about the feather and this is what i got the response..


"...the feather does break the surface of the stone...but it doesnt affect the beauty or structural integrity of the diamond.."....

i am not sure how to interpret this...if someone can help me....

thx

kind of has blobby obscuration...

generally, you need to be at SI2 before worrying about durability.  I think.

looks like a keeper to me.

The feather will be fine and the cloud must be small because the feather seems about right for an SI! grade maker, although the ideal-scope can make reflective inclusions appear worse than they really are.
