Hi everyone! I hope you are all well.
When I first stumbled over PS, I was confronted by a discussion about who buys all the stones that are not perfect, since PSers only buy excellent stones and never below. I immediately thought: well, me. I always have - pre PS certainly because of a lack of knowledge - post PS because of other reasons. Not to create any misunderstandings: I certainly love a perfect cut diamond. It makes me happy to look at it. But I always had a thing for "imperfect" stones, always been drawn to then. Be it an unusual cut, a low colour, an interesting inclusion, a very strong fluorescence. I like the idea of seeing how nature works. The imperfections make the stone perfect for me. Are there any fellow PSer who love imperfect diamonds just as I do? And for what reasons?
