Hello,
I've been looking for an engagement ring for the past few weeks and found one that looks good on paper but for some reason doesn't look quite shiny and sparkling to the naked eye. It's a 1.5 ct, VVS1, G color with triple excellent and no fluorescence. The HCA grade score is 1.5. However, the GIA report comments section says 'Clarity grade is based on internal graining that is not shown'. Should I be concerned about this comment? Is the internal graining the reason why it doesn't look as sparking and bright as it should? Below are more of the diamond's details. Is this a fantastic diamond or should I be concerned about the internal graining? Any advice or comments is much appreciated. Thank you.
