So, I'm looking for something that appears to be about as common as a unicorn, even though nothing here seems crazy to me.
-Cushion Brilliant (not ‘shaved ice’).
-E-H (dropping my sights here to try to find a stone.)
-VVS1-SI1 (a clean SI1 should be good enough at this point.)
-Measurements: above 5.95X5.95
-L/W: 1-1.07ish
-Polish/Symm: VG+, VG+
-Cert: Either GIA or AGS
-Price: Under $8,500 (before setting)
Now, I did find this guy which fits the above:

but when you look at the picture that black spot in the middle screams at me. I know 'you can't tell until you see it in person, but based on the experience of folks here, would that inclusion be visible? VS2 would lead me to say no, but that big screaming black spot leads me to say yes.
ps: To those that responded to my Asscher thread, the GF & I had a talk and based on what I've learned, I explained things to her and she relayed she just wanted something square and looked like the Legacy and thought that Asscher was the only one. So, since I'm not a huge fan of Asschers in my price range, we're moving to cushion.
