VS2 - means that is has 2 very small inclusions - vvs would be better or even no v which means that the stone is perfect (vvs = very very small inclusions which are difficult to see)
You would be better going to Birmingham Jewellery Quarter or Hatton Garden and buying a loose stone that you can see and be shown the cut, clarity and even the inclusions - the stones would be certificated and made into jewellery. Always speak to an expert as he/she will be able to show you several stones side by side and tell you the differences between them.
Grade D is the whitest stone and J has a yellow tinge.0 -
