Hi guys...

I've been reading up alot on these forums and everyone seems so helpful :)

I'm looking to pop the question in a few months and been doing some research... found this round brilliant and was wondering if it's a good one. I wasn't sure about the fact that it has a few inclusions near the edge (not sure what they mean): indented natural, natural, feather, and pinpoints

Any insight would be helpful! I've attached the pic I have of the diamond specs

Measurements: 7.27 - 7.30 x 4.55mm
Carat: 1.5
Color: G
Clarity: VVS2
Cut: Excellent
Polish: Excellent
Symmetry: Excellent
Fluorescence: None
Lab: GIA
HCA: 1.4

Thanks guys so much! Looking forward to a couple months from now :P

vvs2 is a high enough grade that it will be eye clean.

Thanks giraffecusion! My main concern was since they are close to the edge, could it have a negative impact when being set? Would it make the diamond more susceptible to breaking or anything?

indented natural, natural, - Those are just areas of unpolished rough. Looked at with 20x microscope or something, those look like tool marks or something.

feather, - A feather is a crack, so that's the only thing I might be concerned about. Might be a risk for chipping.

and pinpoints - Just tiny specks so no risk at all. May not even be seen with the naked eye.

Okay, this is probably the closest pic I can find to a natural. Unpolished area, looks like a rough cut or tool or machine marks. How bit is it and where is it located? Generally the jeweler tries to turn a round diamond so that the natural is hidden by a prong or other part of the setting. For a H&A round, then can you still orient the arrows the way you want and also hide the natural under a prong? How big is the natural? those are questions to ask.
