A "pear-shaped" diamond, also called "drop-shaped", "pear-cut" or "tear-drop" diamond is characterized by its rounded shape on one end and its pointy side on the other end. Each pear diamond is slightly different from one another, some being longer than others.

Pear-shaped diamonds offer excellent sparkle, as their brilliant-cut facets reflect light beautifully, similar to round diamonds.

Quite popular and trendy, this type of diamond is particularly appreciated for anniversary rings, "Push presents", or any other memorable event, other than for engagement rings.

This diamond shape is the perfect choice for feminine women and has the ability to visually elongate fingers.
