Help - Need opinion on diamond inclusions!

[sparkie]

Hi everyone. I recently purchased an ultrasonic cleaner only to find out later that it is not advisable for diamonds with feathers to be cleaned in it. I then went on to read about feather inclusions and am now feeling somewhat jittery about a diamond which I am about to buy.

I love the diamond a lot and am hoping that its inclusions would not pose any sort of durability risk, even when cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner.

Would appreciate your opinions on the inclusion plotting below. It's a 1.05ct SI1 diamond. Do you think I have cause for concern? In the meantime, I have also contacted the merchant to obtain their opinion. Thanks in advance.

Should be fine. The stone underwent much harsher conditions under the polishing wheel.

That. Just don't hunt for videos - or request to watch the setting - it'll be a scary fifteen minutes!

Thanks for the replies.

I had this question too.

Does this also apply if the feather breaks the girdle? What about putting prongs on the feather and ultrasonic-ing it? Would the prongs knock against the feather causing damage if the US? Would it be safer to have double prongs around the feather, but not on it?
