Hello,
As the title suggests, I recently purchased a diamond for an engagement ring online. It's a 1.17 carat, marquise, VS2, J color, very good cut diamond. I purchased it on Brilliant Earth. Long story short, I didn't read the GIA report until after the purchase, and the report said there was a chip. GIA report: 5182794362.
The price I paid was pretty much at the top of my budget. So my questions:
1) Based on what you see on the GIA report, are there 1 or 2 chips? Because to me it kinda looks like two chips and two feathers.
2) I'm also not sure the severity of the inclusions. I know the word "chip" makes people cringe, but I just want to get your opinion on just how severe this one looks.
3) I have a couple weeks to swap out the diamond. All things considered, though, the same diamond with no chip would cost 1000 more, which would push it out of my budget. Would you swap this chipped one out for a lesser diamond?
Curios to see what you all think. And I know I'm a dummy for buying a chipped diamond.
