Is this a good ideal-scope image?

[DiamondNovice20]

Hi. I''ve been looking at the Ideal-Scope image for this diamond for awhile. I''m wondering if any of you experts can comment on it. I like the strong arrows, but there are some light leakages around the girdle, should that be of great concern?

Thank you very much.

Uhh YEAH it's a good image...very good!! Amazing in fact.

Leakage along the edges the way this stone has is typical for a non-tweaked girdle stone..so it's perfectly normal and in fact has LESS of the typical light leakage than some of the other great looking IS images I have seen.

I love this image!!

take for example this IS...this is a superbcert stone. the pictures we have seen of them are amazing, and everyone who has one loves them, beautiful stones all the way around.

but it's got more leakage on the edges than yours did. so if the SC stones look like this sometimes and can still be amazingly beautiful, chances are this one is going to be a knockout.

i'd take either of these..

Two thumbs up here!!

Great comparison you pulled, Mara!!

I agree both are top notch!

Whiteflash seems to use a slighly different setup for there ideal-scope images which until you have studied a few and know what to expect makes them hard to compare to others images that are available.
Once you have studied a few it gets easier to know what to look for.

Thank you all. I highly value your opinions. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go ahead and buy this diamond very soon, will take some pictures of it and share them.

Thanks.
