[Artax]

Hello! I just got a diamond certified by GIA and got this comment under clarity.
Anyone know the meaning of it? I have never seen it before.
Thank you in advance!

What was the reason?

Not potential means that GIA feels the stone cannot be recut to Internally Flawless. Many times dealers ask if a diamond with minor inclusions is potentially flawless if recut. VS2 would be on the low end of hoping a little weight loss would change a diamond that much without losing too much weight.

Yeah I also was a bit taken aback they would add that since it was a VS2 diamond
