Pear Shaped Engagement Rings
The pear — the jeweller's name for the teardrop ring shape — splices a round brilliant's sparkle onto a tapered point, doing two jobs at once: full brilliant-cut fire, plus a silhouette that visibly lengthens the finger. Our pear shaped engagement rings run from $892 to $6,198 across 182 designs.
Pear shaped diamond ring styles
Wear the point toward the heart or away — both are correct, whatever tradition insists. A pear diamond ring shines in a plain solitaire, gains real presence inside a halo, and a pear cut diamond set east-west makes the most distinctive teardrop engagement ring on any hand.
The lab-grown advantage
A pear shaped diamond carries much of its weight in the rounded belly, so moving up in size shows more than it costs — and lab-grown pricing makes that jump painless. Every stone is IGI-certified and conflict-free.

Pear diamond ratios, prongs and stacking
Ratio sets the character: 1.45–1.55 is the balanced classic; up to 1.75 turns slender and dramatic. Below 1.4 a pear starts reading stubby — the rounded end and the point sit too close together to make their contrast felt. As with all curved fancies, watch the shoulders: they should arc smoothly from belly to point without flat spots.
Five prongs is the pear's standard — two at the belly, two mid-shoulder, one V-cap on the point — and that V-cap is non-negotiable for daily wear. On the hand, most people wear the point toward the nail to lengthen the finger. For the stack, a curved band traces the belly while an open V-band frames the point; both read intentional where a straight band leaves a gap.
Pear shaped ring FAQs
What is a pear shaped diamond?
A pear shaped diamond blends a round brilliant's curved end with a marquise's point — a teardrop outline with full brilliant-cut faceting and 58 facets.
Should the point face up or down?
Tradition says point toward the heart, but there is no rule — most wearers point it down the finger for the lengthening effect. A pear shaped ring is correct either way.
What is a teardrop ring?
Teardrop ring is simply the everyday name for the pear shape — if you searched for a teardrop engagement ring, every ring on this page qualifies.
Do pear diamonds have a bow-tie?
Usually a slight one across the widest part, like ovals and marquises. A well-proportioned pear cut diamond keeps it faint enough that most people never notice.
Is a pear cut engagement ring good for smaller hands?
One of the best choices — the tapered outline of a pear cut engagement ring visually lengthens shorter fingers more than any shape except the marquise.
How should a pear diamond be set?
Point protected — a V-prong at the tip is standard. Five or six prongs total keep a pear diamond ring secure for daily wear.
