Is this diamond a decent one?

I asked for a visual inspection and was told that "Diamond is eye clean, not hazy or cloudy at all. There is a small black inclusion on the table but it is not visible with the unaided human eye." On Holloway it's:
Light Return-Excellent
Fire-Excellent
Scintillation-Excellent
Spread-Very Good

This would be for a pendant (I had asked BN about the stone before wavering between a pendant and a dbty bracelet...the money came from my father's estate and I want something I can hand down. I bought diamond studs with money I got after my mother died and I'd like something similar now. I love the dbty bracelets but don't think it would have quite the same value, sentimental or financial, as a single stone if that makes sense).

Does this diamond seem like good pendant material?

Thank you so much for any input!

The stone has nice numbers. If you don't have a pendant, I would suggest a pendant. It will be harder to see but it seems like
most people get pendants before they get bracelets. Of course, get whichever you prefer! Its a lovely gesture either way.
 
The stone looks like it has potential and as a pendant, it doesn't get the same clarity scrutiny as a ring stone so I don't think the inclusion will be an issue.
 
Thank you both so much! The lady I spoke to at Bluenile recommended another stone and put it on hold, can I ask what you think of this one? There are images of the actual stone on another website, but I'm not sure if it's okay to post them considering I'm not actually buying from them.

This one seems even better, would you say it's worth spending another $100? I know it's for a pendant and won't be seen as closely as a ring, but it's going to be relatively close to my BGD earrings and they're extremely lively...I wouldn't want the pendant to look 'lesser' iykwim.
