Well, I posted this in Rocky Talky, but realized I maybe should have posted it here. So I'm double posting.
Hello PS experts! Long time no see!
I am back again to ask your advice. My DH and I are looking to find my first "antique" piece of jewelry. (My 40th birthday is next week... Yikes!) I would love a pair or OMC or OEC earrings, and we found this pair at Jewels by EricaGrace. I love the size and the look of these earrings, and that they are OMC cushions. But as I look at the photos and videos more intently, I notice one of the earrings has a noticeable black spot/shadow in the middle of the stone. Is this normal for a true Old Mine Cut? I know they are not "perfect" stones, which gives them their character. But this black spot seems pretty obvious.
These earrings are not cheap. For $3200, would you keep looking? Or is this what I should expect for a true old cut?
Here is the link...

Thank you so much!
