Is this IS and ASET solid?

hi All,

Still on search for the right stone. I’ve been offered a 1.27 G VVS2 and asked for the IS sand ASET. How would I interpret? There’s not much green on the aset and just faded reds
Is it the backlighting creating a faded red?

Can you post the GIA/AGS report also?

The angles look pretty decent but the aset looks eh.
 
The ASET and IS images are created by 3D scanning of the stone. They are not photos taken thru the actual scopes. I don't think the scan is properly done. The stone looks a bit wonky. Faded red is fine in this case. I guess that the backlight brightness is set too high in the software. (@Karl_K should be able to tell a bit more). Do you see faded red right in the middle? Anything similar to that is non-issue and you won't see that IRL. I also looked at the actual image of the diamond. It should be a good stone. I don't see any red flag
 
HCA is under 2 so angles should work, I think the ASET might just be over-exposed / have the light up too high?
 
Do note that many well-performing diamonds - speaking in general here - might show up with some over-exposure which can motivate observers to make comments like you see above. Also know that when you see the facets near the girdle show unexpected areas of green in an MRB, that usually demonstrates some manipulation of the angels (painting or digging) in the production process. When this is done it may not make a marked difference to the naked eye, but could also have been done intentionally to make sure a diamond "angle-average" hits a desired mark.

I know diamonds can be heavenly, but this is a new one on me ;)) :lol:
 
This diamond its promising and If I visualise IRL is still the better performer one. How $ is the damage? If price is rigth grab it..

Dang it! Nicely caught. Normally I’d want to go edit my post, but your response is too funny so it is now preserved forever on the internet!
