LAB CREATED DIAMONDS

Pear Cut Diamonds

The pear shape has a modified brilliant cut with 58 facets, combining the rounded end of an oval with the pointed tip of a marquise. Its most practical advantage is size — a pear shaped diamond has approximately 8% more surface area than a round, meaning it faces up noticeably larger. It is also typically 10–30% less expensive than a comparable round diamond.

Symmetry is the single most critical quality factor in a pear. The point must align exactly with the apex of the rounded end, and both wings must form perfectly mirrored curves. Even a slight asymmetry is immediately visible once the stone is set. Always insist on Excellent symmetry.
