Advice on needle on table of round 1ct diamond

[psicron]

I've been looking at
https://www.bluenile.com/hk/diamond-details/LD11408734. It's a SI1 I 1ct diamond. Has good HCA results.

I have asked Bluenile and they said it was eye clean, but I'm a little worried about the two needles in the top of the diamond. Is this really eye clean? It seems very obvious and it's clearly on the table.

Anyone have any experience with something like this?

I think there are other things you want to figure out first before moving forward with this stone. Have you seen 60/60 stones in person, and do you prefer them to traditionally "ideal" cut stones? They are very different "flavors", and not everyone likes both.

Are you able to see an ASET or IS to confirm good light performance? I think those are the most important factors in making your decision (before even considering whether you have an issue w. the needles or not).

Yep. It’s a 60/60, but unlike many, you have a nice tall crown (14%) and nice complimentary crown and pavilion angles. I bet it is bright AND firey!

It's the diamond in my id picture. To me, all diamonds look sparkly. What specific thing should I look for?

Is this your stone or the OP's stone?

Their stone. New threads should be started so we don't derail this one.

With all due respect @mandyXL , you need to go start your own thread and ask your questions pertaining to your stone. You are confusing people posting
a report that does not match the stone that the OP wants an opinion on.

The OP's stone has a low crown of 32.5 degrees with a pavilion of 41 degrees, table 61, depth 60.

@psicron... @ringo865 comments pertain to the GIA report posted by mandyXL and not the stone you are looking at.

Thanks @lovedogs ...getting confusing around here!

If BN vet it in person and says it's eye clean, it probably is at 1.01 ct.
Remember you're seeing this super magnified photo of a diamond, but tiny inclusion probably won't be visible in person when zoomed waaaay down.
I see optical symmetry issue and varying lgh that's causing notable uneven obstructions, so it's not the most precisely cut diamond though, and such is often a problem at 41 pavilion.
