I went and looked at a SI1 Emerald cut stone today. Even though the stone looked clean looking thru the table straight up, one were able to notice the crystal at about 30% off straight-up. The crystal is sitting just off the table underneath. Even though I can locate it fairly easily when I stare at it knowing where to find, a casual look at the stone didn''t reveal the crystal. I don''t know what to take home from this. It would be helpful if someone posts some pics, idealscopes, or other images of SI1 stones, especially emerald or ascher.
It was a 1.71 carat G SI1 with 63.3 depth and 61 table, with a nice spread 8.35x6.11x3.87. The interesting thing is that the stone was advertised online for $8500, but when I went to store I was told that the stone''s price is 10885, and that they would give 10% discount which would bring the price to about 9800. When I told that about their website price, they said they will honor it. I know the stone is damn cheap for the price. The only thing that I am not sure about is the clarity, which I am having problem understanding. Pics would help here.
Thanks.
