Gridle reflection or crack

[Clee291809]

Hello can someone help me, I just got my ring refurbished and cleaned and I have noticed this line across my diamond, can someone tell me if this is the gridle reflection or maybe a crack? I have had it for for 10 years and never noticed this, this is the first time I have sent it away to be completely cleaned, thank you

it is a super huge.... I mean perfectly normal girdle reflection.

What would cause it to be so big? I have never noticed it before

The girdle reflection looks normal size to me.
You have to look at it just so for it to pop out at you.

You said you just got your ring cleaned - if it was dirty before it would have been much harder or maybe impossible to see. My experience is that they're pretty noticeable on clean diamonds but not so much on dirty diamonds.

Definitely girdle reflection - no worries!!

This question pops up many times. It seems so terrifying at first, and then becomes completely normal. It can be seen easily any time you look at a round diamond from the side.

Thank you to everyone for the replies, the manager from the shop I got it cleaned from said it was an inclusion when I went back in to get it checked out that’s why I wasn’t sure but I definitely thought they had done something to my diamond when the cleaned it.
