Which direction should a pear-shaped diamond face on the finger?
Most of our local clients prefer to wear the pear-shaped diamond with the pointed end facing toward the fingernails, as this creates the most elongating effect for the finger. However, there is no wrong way to wear it—we invite you to try on several settings at our Newton showroom to see which orientation you prefer.
How do you protect the delicate tip of a pear-shaped diamond?
The point of a pear-shaped diamond is its most vulnerable area. At our Newton Centre studio, we utilize specialized V-prongs to securely wrap around the tip, protecting it from accidental chips while maintaining the stone's elegant teardrop symmetry.
Can I customize a pear-shaped ring with a halo?
Absolutely. A halo setting is a popular choice for pear shapes as it follows the unique contour of the stone and can make the center diamond appear even larger. Our Newton workshop specializes in precision-fitting halos to the exact proportions of your specific pear-cut diamond.
What should I look for regarding the symmetry of a pear-cut diamond?
Symmetry is critical for a pear shape to ensure the curves are even on both sides and the point aligns with the center of the rounded end. When you visit us in Newton, our experts will help you examine diamonds under magnification to ensure your stone has a graceful, well-balanced "teardrop" profile.
