Should I be worred about Crystal, Feather, Pinpoint finish in a VS1?

[BM993T]

The VS1 stone that I am buying has clarity characteristics described as above ... crystal, feather, pinpoint finish.

Should I be worried? It appears eyeclean, but don''t want the stone cracking later down the road or showing crappy performance because of the crystal and pinpoint finish.

Thoughts?

You should have no worries with these inclusions in VS1. As to cracking or breaking, this can happen to even flawless diamonds with bad luck or a heavy blow - your best bet is to get a good insurance policy which covers for damage and enjoy your ring. I take it you changed your mind about the VVS diamond you were considering? If you want, post the proportions of the above diamond and we can take a look at it for you if you want advice on the cut quality.
