If not, avoid. Plus, this whole "Original price: 48K, Sales price: 24.5K" business is very very sketchy. It's BS, and I always like to avoid sites that try to BS you. Nobody can afford to discount a diamond that much. And the fact that they're listing the diameter of the diamond as "1/4 inches" is very odd as well. It implies that there's no certification because if there were, they would list the exact diameter in millimeters. Is it certified by GIA or AGS? If not, avoid.

The website is members-only, but here is the description:-Piranesi round diamond and platinum split shank ring -Original Price: $48k -Sale Price: $24,500 -Total Weight: 2.09 carats -Description: Platinum and round cut diamond split shank ring with pave diamond border details -Color: D -Clarity: SI1 -Diameter: 0.25 inches -GIA certificate included.The color is great, but I'm not sure about the SI1 clarity. I know it's difficult without the link or picture, but if you have any input, I'd appreciate it. I can also email an attachment of the picture if necessary. Hi,

I was wondering if I could get your opinion on a diamond that I saw online. The website is members-only, but here is the description:

-Piranesi round diamond and platinum split shank ring
-Original Price: $48k
-Sale Price: $24,500
-Total Weight: 2.09 carats
-Description: Platinum and round cut diamond split shank ring with pave diamond border details
-Color: D
-Clarity: SI1
-Diameter: 0.25 inches
-GIA certificate included.

The color is great, but I’m not sure about the SI1 clarity. I know it’s difficult without the link or picture, but if you have any input, I’d appreciate it. I can also email an attachment of the picture if necessary.

Clarity is only a problem if the inclusions are eye visible. So an eye clean SI2 looks exactly a flawless stone. But a D color diamond will look whiter than a J color diamond.
