AGS SI2 feather inclusion

[ilikesparkles]

I have found a diamond that I love everything about...minus a feather inclusion on the edge. I was told that if it was done right, it would be safe to put a prong over it. I will not be able to see the stone in person before purchasing, but I have seen zoomed in images. The feather inclusion of course is very visible in the pictures. I asked if it was eye clean and I was told that the feather dampens the brilliance of the stone and it is hazy in that area, but that most would not notice. I know I will not be happy with it if I always see a fuzzy spot when I look at it....What would you do??!

I would pass quite honestly. I think the above highlighted statement is your answer.

I''d pass, also. Maybe most people wouldn''t see the hazy area, but knowing it was there and possibly visible, the stone would never be "mind clean".
