Hello all,
I visited some mall jewelery stores yesterday and looked at some rings. While viewing several SI2''s, I was able to immediately spot imperfections with my naked eye at quite a fair distance(with no magnification). The SI1''s inclusions were less noticeable at first, but once I saw them magnified, I was able to spot them easily in plain sight without magnification. I don''t believe any of these stones were GIA/AGS graded.
Now for my question:
How far in the clarity range(GIA/AGS) would I need to go in order to not see any inclusions? I wouldn''t mind being able to see them when magnified, but would like absolutely no trace of inclusions to be seen when viewed from a naked eye(no matter now close I look).
