Ideal-scopes exaggerate leakage and that shade of pale area would mean that the stone is returning around 70% of the light.Date: 3/27/2007 1:13:30 PM

Hi d,
It''s not bad. Not what I''d call excellent, but not the worst by far. A little leaky (3 white areas inbetween arrows under the table at the bottom), but I can''t say it would be enough to notice with the naked eye. I would ask GOG about it, could be a real pretty diamond!
Gary, thanks for the info!Date: 3/27/2007 9:06:12 PM

It is rare for any part of a diamond to return more than 90%, so those areas would definetly be very bright if they were capturing a light source and the return to your eye would not be noticely less sparkly
Thanks for helping put the image up!
