Frequently asked questions
What is a pear-shaped diamond?
A pear-shaped diamond, sometimes called a teardrop diamond, combines the round brilliant and marquise cuts to create a unique shape with a pointed tip and rounded end. It’s a versatile style that works beautifully in both modern and vintage-inspired settings.
Why are pear-shaped engagement rings popular?
Pear-shaped diamonds are loved for their distinctive shape and ability to make fingers look longer and slimmer. They also give a dramatic, eye-catching look while offering excellent sparkle, making them a great choice for anyone who wants something a little different.
What makes a pear-shaped diamond unique?
The pointed tip of a pear-shaped diamond creates a bold and dramatic look, while its rounded end adds softness and balance. Proper symmetry and proportion are key to enhancing the beauty of this cut, as they ensure the diamond sparkles evenly.
How does the ratio affect a pear-shaped diamond?
The length-to-width ratio of a pear-shaped diamond plays a big role in its appearance:
- Shorter Ratio (1.45 - 1.55): Creates a softer, more rounded look, ideal for a classic or vintage-inspired style.
- Longer Ratio (1.55 - 1.75): Gives the diamond a sleeker, more elongated look, perfect for a modern aesthetic.
When you visit our showroom in London, we’ll show you how different ratios can transform the look of your ring and help you find the one that feels just right.
What is the bowtie effect, and how can it be avoided?
The bowtie effect is a dark shadow that can appear across the center of a diamond due to poor cutting. Pear-shaped diamonds are particularly prone to this issue if not cut correctly. At our Hatton Garden showroom, we’ll help you choose a diamond with excellent symmetry and proportions to minimise or eliminate the bowtie effect, ensuring maximum sparkle.
How do I pick the right size for a pear-shaped diamond?
Here are some things to consider when choosing the size and shape of your pear-shaped diamond:
- Budget: Pear-shaped diamonds tend to look larger than other cuts of the same carat weight, making them a great choice if you want more visual impact.
- Lifestyle: If you’re active or work with your hands, consider a setting that protects the pointed tip, such as a bezel or a protective V prong design.
- Personal Style: Decide if you prefer a shorter or longer pear shape, depending on the look you’re going for.
What’s the best setting for a pear-shaped diamond?
The right setting will highlight the unique shape of your pear diamond while keeping it secure. Popular choices include:
- Solitaire: A classic choice that puts all the focus on the diamond’s unique shape.
- Halo: Adds a ring of smaller diamonds to enhance the size and sparkle of the pear-shaped stone.
- Three-Stone: Features side stones that complement and balance the central pear shape.
- Bezel: Wraps the diamond in metal, protecting its pointed tip and giving it a modern look.
- Toi et Moi: A romantic style featuring two stones, often a pear-shaped diamond paired with another shape like a round or oval. This setting symbolises two souls coming together, making it a meaningful and stunning choice.
