The pear cut is unlike any other diamond cut. A unique and stunning style of diamond originating in 1475, this cut has stood the test of time. Originally called the 'teardrop,' it combines a round brilliant cut diamond and a marquise cut diamond, with one pointed end and one rounded end. Pear-shaped engagement rings are popular because their 58 facets allow maximum light refraction and greater sparkle.

Your pear-shaped ring can be set in various ways. Choose from:

Halo: A collection of smaller stones surrounds one centre stone.

Solitaire: One centre stone is set on a plain band.

Shouldered: Smaller stones are set in the band from the centre stone out to the midpoint of the ring.

Once you have chosen your setting, the fun and creativity continue as you select your mount. Our 10 and 14-carat solid gold mounts are available in yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold.

Pear Cut Ring FAQs Answered 

What does a pear-shape ring symbolise?

The distinctive teardrop shape of the pear cut is thought to symbolise tears of joy, making it a meaningful choice for an engagement ring. This unique style suggests originality, a strong will, and an independent mind. For those who want something a little different, the tapered teardrop of the pear-shaped cut is a standout choice. Secrets Shhh has an extensive range of pear cut rings, including the latest trends in engagement rings and dress rings.

Are pear-shaped rings and teardrop diamond rings the same thing?

Yes, the pear shape is also sometimes called a teardrop cut because of the shape of the stone: rounded at one end and tapered at the other. This is a combination of the round brilliant and the marquise cuts. The exact shape and size of the stone can vary from ring to ring. At your local Secrets Shhh boutique, we can offer personalised styling advice to help you find your perfect match.

Do pear cut rings look bigger than other cuts?

The elongated teardrop shape of the pear cut can make the stone look about 20% larger than traditional cuts. The top surface can be about 8% larger than a round brilliant cut, making a bigger impact with a smaller stone. Most people choose a length-to-width ratio between 1.55 and 1.75 for a balanced look.

Are pear-shaped rings more expensive?

No, a pear cut diamond ring can actually cost less than a round brilliant diamond one with the equivalent carat weight stone. The pear shape is rising in popularity because the stone appears larger, and imperfections are harder to see. This versatile cut suits anything from a vintage setting to an ultra-modern look. At Secrets Shhh, we have an amazing range of pear-shaped engagement and dress rings featuring the finest cut pear-shaped stones.
