FAQs about Pear Cut Engagement Rings
Are pear-shaped diamond rings popular?
Fancy-cut diamonds account for only 25% of all engagement rings sold at Blue Nile, and pear-shaped diamonds account for only a portion of that. This makes pear-shaped diamond engagement rings stand out from the crowd.
Rings with pear diamonds are also known as teardrop rings. These teardrop engagement rings are also a wonderful choice for affordable ring styles. Fancy-cut stones, such as pear diamonds, can be less expensive by carat weight than other more traditional cuts.
Because of the unique way a pear diamond is faceted, it can often look larger than a round diamond of similar carat weight and additional 4Cs ratings. This is because the gems in pear engagement rings often carry additional carat weight around the table, resulting in a larger-appearing stone.
How are you supposed to wear a teardrop engagement ring?
A pear cut diamond ring is typically worn with the point aimed towards the fingertip and the round portion aimed at the palm, but the ring can be worn however the wearer prefers.
Are pear engagement rings more expensive?
Pear diamonds are one of the nine fancy-cut shapes. Fancy-cut diamonds are up to 25% less expensive than round, brilliant-cut diamonds of the same carat weight and quality. This makes pear rings an affordable option that brings incredible sparkle.
Are all pear cut diamonds the same shape?
Each diamond is unique, and pear-shaped diamond rings are no different. These stones are cut to maximize their best features, so no two stones are exactly alike. The length and width of the pear shape will vary from one stone to another. Check the pear diamond length-to-width ratio to determine if it will be short and wide or long and slender.
Which carat sizes are best for pear engagement rings?
The unique shape of pear cut engagement rings can make a smaller carat weight look larger than the same weight in other stone shapes. Pear diamonds have a larger table and an elongated crown compared to round brilliant diamonds. This makes pear-shaped rings appear larger than many other cuts, which allows all sizes to shine.
Our most popular pear-shaped diamond sizes for teardrop engagement rings range from 0.5 to 1.5 carats, though we offer these contemporary stones in many sizes both below and beyond this range. Our pear diamond rings are available in a wide range of carat weights.
What setting is best for pear rings?
There is no singular setting that’s the best fit for pear-shaped diamond rings. Instead, pear diamond rings are available in a wide variety of styles and shapes. The unique teardrop shape shines in a variety of setting types and metals such as white gold, platinum, yellow gold and rose gold.
Pear-shaped engagement rings are available in many different setting types including solitaire, halo, milgrain, micropavé, diamond accent, three-stone, two-tone and split shank pear rings. Though the pear shape is most commonly found in women’s rings, there are men’s engagement rings that also highlight this diamond shape.
Pear cut engagement rings can be set with the main stone in either north-south or east-west orientation. A stone that is set north-south is the more traditional style and provides greater coverage on the finger. Setting the pear ring’s main stone in an east-west ring setting is an emerging style for unique pear-shaped engagement rings. With so many settings to choose from, the best choice is the setting that matches the wearer’s personal style.
Are pear-shaped diamond rings more expensive than round?
Generally speaking, pear-shaped diamond rings are less expensive than round engagement rings.
Do pear cut diamond rings look bigger?
The elongated shape of pear cut engagement rings can make the ring look bigger. When set north-south, pear-shaped diamonds have greater coverage on the wearer’s finger. The larger surface area of pear diamond can make it look larger than other diamonds of the same weight. This makes pear cut diamond engagement rings a popular choice for maximizing sparkle on any budget.
What bands go well with pear rings?
Teardrop engagement rings match perfectly with many types of wedding rings. The unique stone shape is complemented by simple rings, eternity wedding bands and many other styles. For no gap between the pear ring and the wedding band, opt for matching sets or curved wedding rings.
Is color or clarity more important in a pear-shaped engagement ring?
When it comes to the 4Cs, color is one of the most important considerations for a pear cut diamond ring. Pear-shaped diamonds are excellent at hiding many imperfections, but they can display more color than other diamond types. It’s typically a good start to focus on a pear-shaped ring that has high diamond color ratings such as colorless, near colorless or an intentional fancy color.
Do pear-shaped engagement rings sparkle?
Yes, pear-shaped diamond rings deliver incredible sparkle. They are faceted for brilliance that shines from all angels.
How do I find the right ring size?
You can find the perfect ring size with our printable or plastic sizer.
Are teardrop engagement rings stylish?
Combining the best of round diamonds and marquise diamonds, pear-cut diamond engagement rings are incredibly popular. These stylish rings offer a brilliantly modern take on unique diamond shapes, pairing familiar scintillation with an eye-catching shape.
