The pear (or teardrop) cut combines round and marquise shapes into a single point and a rounded end — a distinctive, elongating shape that works beautifully in both solitaire and halo settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which way should a pear-shaped diamond point on the finger?
Convention points the tip toward the fingertip, though it comes down to personal preference — we'll show you both during design.
Does a pear shape need a specific setting to prevent chipping at the tip?
Yes — a protective prong at the point is standard practice and something we build into every pear-shaped design.
