Pear Cut

The pear shape, designed to resemble a sparkling teardrop, is a blend of the round and marquise cuts. Like marquise cut gemstones, excellent symmetry is key for the pear shape, as even the slightest difference can make a diamond or gemstone appear uneven. Some people like to wear pear gemstones with the point facing up and others like to wear them with the point facing down ‐ it's up to you!
