Why Choose a Pear Shape Diamond?

The pear shape diamond, often referred to as a teardrop diamond, blends the best features of both the round brilliant and marquise cuts.
Its distinctive silhouette rounded at one end and pointed at the other gives it an elegant, flattering appearance that elongates the finger and maximises sparkle.

One of the most appealing aspects of the pear cut is that it often looks larger per carat weight than round diamonds due to its elongated shape. This means you get a visually bigger diamond without necessarily paying more perfect for those who love impact and value.

Considerations When Buying a Pear Cut Diamond

When choosing a pear shape engagement ring, there are a few important factors to keep in mind:

1. Symmetry

A high-quality pear diamond should have perfect symmetry — the rounded end and pointed tip must align seamlessly. Even the slightest imbalance can make the diamond appear uneven when set.

2. Bow Tie Effect

Like ovals, pear cut diamonds can exhibit a “bow tie” — a dark shadow across the centre of the stone caused by how light interacts with the facets. A well-cut pear shape minimises this effect, allowing light to reflect evenly across the diamond’s surface.

3. Length-to-Width Ratio

The ratio of a pear-shaped diamond affects its overall look. Most buyers prefer ratios between 1.45 and 1.70, which offer a balanced, classic teardrop appearance.

• Shorter ratios look bolder and rounder.

• Longer ratios create a more slender, elegant look.

Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference — we recommend viewing your pear cut diamond in person at our Hatton Garden showroom before deciding.
