I just purchased a 1-carat EGL certified princess cut stone with VS1 clarity, I color and ideal cut from a credible online store. I received the ring and was surprised that a) I could easily see two inclusions in the table and b) the I color was very yellow.
Was I wrong in my understanding that VS1 would be eye-clean? Was I mistaken in thinking that I would face-up white?
I can return the ring for a refund or exchange. I''m just sort of confused about what to do now. The vendor told me I should at the very minimum get SI1 as SI2 would definitely show inclusions in a princess. But if a VS1 shows visible inclusions, would SI2 be much worse? How many grades must I go up to see improvement in the color? H? G?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
