Pear Cut Diamonds — Elegance with a Point of Difference
A captivating blend of soft curves and a singular point, the pear cut diamond — also known as the teardrop — is both graceful and striking. With its asymmetric silhouette, it brings movement, light, and a touch of drama to any piece of jewellery.
Whether you're drawn to its vintage charm or contemporary elegance, the pear cut is a shape that speaks to individuality, refinement, and a quietly confident sense of style.
What Is a Pear Cut Diamond?
The pear cut combines the brilliance of a round cut with the elongated elegance of a marquise. One end is rounded, the other tapers to a distinct point — creating a unique silhouette that flatters the hand and catches the light beautifully from every angle.
It’s a cut full of personality: romantic yet bold, timeless yet unconventional. Pear cuts are often set to elongate the finger, with the point traditionally facing away from the hand — though their versatility allows for endless interpretation.
Who Is the Pear Cut For?
Pear cut diamonds suit those with a strong sense of personal style. They're a favourite of people who appreciate beauty with an edge — and who aren't afraid to choose something that breaks from the traditional round or princess styles.
Whether worn in a solitaire setting, halo, or flanked by delicate side stones, a pear cut ring feels expressive, elegant, and effortlessly modern.

Signature Styles: How to Wear the Pear Ring
The pear cut is beautifully versatile, and its distinct silhouette lends itself to a wide range of elegant settings. Here are a few of our most-loved styles:
Solitaires – Let the shape speak for itself with a clean, minimalist band. The pointed tip adds drama, while the soft curve keeps things romantic.
Halos – A delicate frame of smaller diamonds enhances the pear’s brilliance and makes the centre stone appear even larger — ideal for vintage-inspired glamour.
East-West Settings – For a contemporary twist, set the pear horizontally. This modern interpretation feels bold and original, while still deeply refined.
Three-Stone Rings – Flank the pear with tapered baguettes or round diamonds for a balanced, symmetrical look with timeless appeal.
Cluster or Asymmetric Designs – Embrace the unconventional nature of the pear by surrounding it with scattered or uniquely placed diamonds — a bold, bespoke choice.
