et_flex_module\"><p>The pointed tip is the most vulnerable part of a pear diamond. We recommend a setting with a V-prong or bezel tip that wraps around and shields the point from impact. Avoid wearing the ring during heavy manual work. A well-set pear in a protective prong is perfectly durable for everyday wear.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_1 et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close et_pb_module et_flex_module preset--module--divi-toggle--default\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What is the best length-to-width ratio for a pear diamond?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix et_flex_module\"><p>The classic pear ratio is between 1.50 and 1.75, with 1.55\u20131.65 considered the sweet spot. Ratios below 1.50 appear stubbier, while ratios above 1.75 can look overly narrow. Also check for a smooth, symmetrical curve \u2014 the two halves of the pear should be mirror images of each other.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_2 et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close et_pb_module et_flex_module preset--module--divi-toggle--default\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">Do pear diamonds show a bow-tie effect?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix et_flex_module\"><p>Like ovals and marquise diamonds, pear shapes can display a dark bow-tie shadow across the widest part. A minimal bow-tie is normal, but a heavy one reduces beauty significantly. At Diamantwerp, we inspect every pear for bow-tie intensity and only stock stones with minimal shadowing. Read our cut guide.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_toggle_3 et_pb_toggle et_pb_toggle_item et_pb_toggle_close et_pb_module et_flex_module preset--module--divi-toggle--default\"><h5 class=\"et_pb_toggle_title\">What colour grade should I choose for a pear diamond?<\/h5><div class=\"et_pb_toggle_content clearfix et_flex_module\"><p>The pear's brilliant facet pattern handles colour similarly to the round and oval \u2014 reasonably forgiving, with G or H being the practical sweet spot for most buyers. The one area to watch is the pointed tip: the point concentrates light return differently from the rounded shoulder, and colour can appear slightly more pronounced there in lower grades. In practice this is rarely visible to the naked eye at G\u2013H, but it's worth being aware of at I and below.<br \/>\nSetting choice matters more for colour in a pear than in most shapes.
