Is this stone a keeper?

[BrimstoneTwo]

Hi all,

First post here after a lot of reading so please be gentle.

Would love any opinions on this stone. We are in the UK and really want to avoid having to return something internationally if it's not good. There is something going on the ASET image, but if it's simply light reflection at a different angle, is this a bad thing? Thoughts appreciated.

Actually, we'd really love any suggestions as we are drowning in information and it's almost impossible to choose! I am impressed by anyone who does this for a living!

Budget £15K
Minimum 1.5 carat
G-I
VS1 and above
Looking for the best cut and fire for the price.

TIA

Similar thread, might be an explanation?

If you're willing to drop to VS2, which is still eye clean, there's this one:

Thanks Snowdrop! Oddly enough, that exact diamond is on our screen right now!

Two more to consider. These are I color, but you gain size. For super-ideals, I don't mind I colors...

Website is being updated, but they will sent you video or information about the stones. They can also make or acquire most settings. Great custom work if you need that.

Did anyone else see this? May or may not be available (must call to inquire):
https://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-3867778.htm?source=pricescope

1.57ct H VS1 AGS0 for $9600

It has strong blue fluorescence, so it may be discounted due to milkiness? Or just a database error?

Thanks for your help! We've gone with the one Snowdrop suggested above.

Now to find a setting that I actually like.
