SI1 diamond - need your expert advice!

[shinb6570]

Hello all^^

I was hoping to get some advice on this James Allen stone. just by looking at the video of it, would you think it would be "eye clean"? Is it worth inquiring about? if so, what other images should I ask for? The size seems decent for the price, but I no expert. Please let me know what you think, if you have a sec. Thanks.

Looks pretty eyeclean to me. I would ask the vendor if it is and ask if the feather reaches the surface

Thanks for the reply^^ So if they say that it`s eye clean ( I realize that`s a relative term...) and that the feather doesn`t extend to the surface, is there anything else that i should request from them before thinking about buying? In your opinion, what do you think about it?

Just to clarify feathers for you;

A feather is plotted where it reaches the surface, not what it actually looks like. That being said almost every feather inclusion by definition reaches the surface of the diamond.

Sometimes a feather is connected to a crystal and can be totally internal, but when that happens the whole inclusion is plotted as a crystal.
