Strange that they would post it for sale midway through the cutting process.

That's a head scratcher for sure.

There is a report, so it was eventually finished. But why the mid-process video? Does someone at Ritani have a devious sense of humor?

Maybe they are selling it as rough? But you would think that would be done through some wholesale transaction.

Part H&A, part step cut...do you have the link @oncrutchesrightnow ? Curious about what the report shows as faceting
pattern. Probably just shows a generic cushion pattern but ???

I keep looking at this one....Lord help me, it is such a no, but I keep coming back. Strong fluorescent, plenty of issues...but I feel like I like it. What do you all think? It's pretty and wonky. Ya'll talk me down. Watch it move. I mean...the score is 1 out of 6. Ritani does not recommend.

Ugh, I am on day 3 of obsession with this rock.

Will the inclusions bother you? I would be bothered by them personally.

yes, they would bother me too, but if they don't bother you @lovedogs then go for it. The color wouldn't bother me. And the price sure seems good.

Sometimes "wonky" stones speak to me. As long as you're going in with eyes wide open (lower color, possibly/probably visible
inclusions), I'm not going to talk you out of it. :cheeky:

Return is always an option.:wink2:

I usually dislike them. In this particular rock though, the crystal looks so clear and the inclusions are pretty, almost like a scattered snowfall. I can look at 100 diamonds and dislike the inclusions, so it's just this combination.

:) My husband is hoping I reconsider. I need another diamond like a hole in my head. The price is great!

I wondered how you would see it.

I assume these will be quite visible inclusions. I love the low color, so that is a plus, along with the strong floro.
