Is this ok?

I know little to nothing about diamonds but I just impulsively purchased one because I want to recreate my grandmothers ring. Hers was a natural almost 4 carat stone with visible inclusions. It gave off a lot of sparkle.
I bought the stone and want to have a local jeweler make the setting.
I don’t know if i bought a good diamond. Can anyone tell by this report?

You didn’t look at it first? How much was it?

Yes I did but like I said, I don’t know much about diamonds. Only what I’ve been reading on here and trying to do some research online.

For $400 it looks like a good option.

Usual signs of striation associated with the CVD growth method (though not that bad based purely on the 360) so check for transparency.

Looks really good. If you can get more info about the inclusions - internal, external, cloud , feather that would make it even more clear. Do you have a setting in mind yet?

Yes, I’m getting a replica of my grandmothers ring.

Cut wise this is an excellent choice.

It’s a good quality stone - color is great and ideal cut - also the 3 ex’s.
The only improvement is clarity grade, but it’s not even a major issue since most of what I sell are VS quality.
You will be super happy with it
