I am looking at buying this diamond, and I am a little worried about this certs clarity grade characteristics section. It lists it as a VS2, Crystal, Cloud, Feather. I have seen quite a few GIA certs now and I have never seen more then 2 clarity grade characteristics listed, Does this make this stone any worse than any other GIA VS2 stone? I will include the cert pic. Do these inclusions make the sparkle ofhte diamond less? Would I be better looking for another stone? thanks for the help

Do not worry - each of them must be about 1/3rd the size they would have been if there was only 1.
You probably have 3 VVS2 inclusions that all look different

Well that makes me feel quite a bit better as I have seen quite a few of your posts on these cut grade characteristics discussions Cut Nut. Anyone else have an opinion on these. I would love to hear them. The one that most worried me was the feather inclusion, but after hearing that they are probably VVS2 inclusions, I don;t think I have to worry about these being evident in the stone. Keep the opinions coming. thanks
 
I have seen quite a few VVS2s with very slight feathers, but I wouldn't worry, if GIA graded it as such I doubt you'll even be able to find them! Mine is a VVS2 with a cloud and two pinpoints, and I am still looking for the one pinpoint. The cloud is TINY TINY TINY and on the left corner...

VVS2 means you'll almost NEVER see it, even with a loupe, and if it was an SI1, THEN I'd be worried, but not about this little guy!

Im sorry my eyes are really blurry this morning, is that a .84 ct or a .94 ct?

Don't worry. Those inclustions including the feather are minute. VS2 is a great clarity. Enjoy!
 
It is .84ct, and it is not a VVS stone it is a VS stone, but Cut Nut said they are probably all VVS inclusion sizes. Thanks for the quick replies guyz/galz, keep them coming.
 
Then I think its great! I was a little worried that the spread was too small for a .94 diamond, thats all.
The AGA cut chart gives it a 2B rating!
Can you see the stone soon?

When I plug the numbers in I get the figures back saying it is a 1A stone, except I do not have the Crown % yet. Should get that today. The 1A guidelines say that there is allowed to be a single 1B charactgeristic and that is the table %. I will attach a pic, if I am doing something wrong in plugging in the numbers let me know. Thanks
Man this fourm moves fast!

sorry i meant 1B not 2B...I didnt use the DIY generator, I just looked and saw that the table was 1B and the depth was in the range of 1A to 2A...so I thought it would fall under 1B! Good luck getting the crown height! Let us know how it turns out.

Im sorry!
I was looking at the radiant cut chart. The cert said modified brilliant and i missed the part where it didnt say cut cornered, and thats what all my radiant certs look like. (told ya my eyes were blurry!) Your stone will def be graded higher on the princess chart! LOL!
