Buying an Engagement ring - Princess Cut - Help please

[sniggity]

Thank you all for your help thus far.

Now comparing the actual image of the diamond to the IS image, that black inclusion in the center of the diamond. Any guesses as to what that could be?? will it be noticable while looking at the stone??

I had asked JA and i was given a generalized answer, not really particular to the stone. I was told that any carbon was very negligible and that at VS clarity would be very difficult to tell. Even hearing that, im still a little paranoid.

Only way to know is to pin them down, ask for their gemologist Julianna to inspect the diamond for you and make your expectations clear. If you don''t want to see any visible inclusions from any angle or distance, let them know that.
