Hi all,
I found an SI2 diamond that is eye clean except for a couple feathers that can be covered by prongs. My question is whether clarity grade-making feathers coming out from the girdle suggest a diamond that is more susceptible to chipping or cracking and whether such diamonds should be avoided. I really like the cut and look of the diamond, but I don''t want to chance a brittle diamond. I have included a cropping of the gia report noting the inclusions.
Your advice is appreciated.
