DIAMOND SHAPE

The Pear cut diamond

Halfway between round and marquise, the pear shape, or teardrop, quietly elongates the finger.

Origin

One of the oldest "fancy" shapes, developed as early as the 15th century by Flemish cutters, direct ancestors of my craft.

Character

An elegant asymmetric silhouette: the point must be perfectly aligned with the round end for a harmonious result.

Ideal for

Those who want a shape that breaks from the classic without losing elegance, the point visually slims the finger.

Dealer's tip

The alignment of the two ends is the detail that separates a beautiful pear from a sloppy one, it's the first thing I check under the loupe.
