question about the leakage in this IS of this stone

[randomguy]

I was just looking at a stone and was concerned a bit about the white leakage that is near the center of the stone (highlighted green). Any thoughts here? Should this be a big issue / really affect the look?

I see most of the IS''s on here look all red with solid black, I just wanted a second opinion.


thanks.

This might not be noticeable in reality, do you have the proportions and all the info on the diamond please?

Sure thing:

. Carat: 1.313
. Depth %: 62.1
. Table %: 55.5
. Crown Angle: 34.3
. Crown %: 15.2
. Star : 50
. Pavilion Angle: 40.8
. Pavilion %: 43
. Lower Girdle %: 80
. Girdle: Thin to Medium Faceted
. Measurements: 6.98-7.04X4.35
. Light Performance: 0
. Polish: Ideal
. Symmetry: Ideal
. Culet: Pointed
. Fluorescence: Negligible

I like the stone, it was just that bit of leakage that concerned me. It also could be that my perception is extremely skewed from seeing all the perfect pics here on PS

yap, probably not noticeable in real life.

EDT:
Numbers look good, probably just some misalignment when the lower half is cut.

Thank you kindly! Its a great diamond and you are right, all the time we see super perfect images here, this diamond is certainly no slouch though - I would give it a 9.5 out of 10 looking at the image and I am betting you would never notice those areas in reality. Ask Bob Hoskins to take a look at the stone and discuss it with you, that would put your mind at ease or he might suggest another diamond if this one does not suit.
