PEAR CUT DIAMONDS
The pear shaped brilliant diamond is based upon the traditional configuration of
the round brilliant diamond. More than other fancy shapes, length-to-width
ratio is a matter of taste when it comes to pear shaped diamonds. Because pears
may be used for engagement rings, suites in necklaces, dangles in earrings, and
integral parts of custom designs, a wide variety of shapes is considered
desirable.

The standard number of facets of a Pear Cut Diamond is 58, but can be cut with
different numbers of pavilion mains of 8, 7, 6 or 4 facets.
A hybrid cut, combining the best of the Round Brilliant and the Marquise, it is
shaped like a sparkling teardrop.
For a pear-shaped diamond that is pleasing to the eye, look for a
ratio (length/width) between 1.45 and 1.55.
For Rings, this cut compliments a hand with small or average length fingers. It
is particularly beautiful for Pendants and Earrings.
Colour also shows fairly dramatically in a Pear Cut Diamond.
The pear is another popular fancy cut it uses the base of a brilliant or round
cut and extends it self to point , if well proportioned it gives a depth of
scintillation to the point of the stone. A benefit in design if a longer look
is required.
