Why Pear Engagement Rings are a Great Pick
Even though the look of pear diamonds speak for themselves, there are lots of smart reasons why pear diamonds will be the smartest choice for your engagement ring.
Pear-shaped diamonds deliver all the sparkle and glitter that should be expected from an engagement ring, and that is thanks to their brilliant cut. The elongated structure of the pear shape has a lengthening and slendering effect on the finger.
Pear diamonds have a large surface area, which also means lots of finger coverage! The more sparkle, the better, no? This also results in the fact that pear diamonds appear larger per carat in comparison to round-cut diamonds.
Did you know pears are considered to be fancy shaped diamonds, among other shapes like the oval and marquise? This makes them significantly less costly than round brilliant diamonds, which means you can get a bigger stone for the same cost, or indulge more of your budget in your setting choice.

Enough talk about the fine details. Let’s review some of our favorite pear-shaped engagement ring styles trending this year.
Solitaire Settings
Last year, duo-set diamonds were a hot trend. It’s not surprising we’re seeing a swing back to people preferring a single set stone on a solitaire setting in 2023! Pear-shaped diamonds will not disappoint being set on simple gold bands, as their brilliant shine and marvelous shape steal the show.
The Kamelie is the perfect timeless solitaire to showcase a beautiful pear diamond, and will forever stay in style. The band is dainty and flattering to the hand, and the hidden halo detail adds that extra sparkle that will enhance your pear diamond.
Vintage-Style Engagement Rings
With the rise in popularity of thrifting and vintage item shopping, it’s no surprise the roaring 20s are making a comeback in the engagement ring world, too. The geometric shapes and bold features of the Art Deco style of the 1920s look classic and timeless.
The Jasmine is a stunning example of the best of both vintage settings paired with pear-shaped diamonds. From the intricate milgrain details in the yellow gold, to the beautiful structure of the setting, to the glistening pear diamond, what’s not to love? The pear and Art Deco put together will stand the test of time (and changing trends).
The yellow gold of the Jasmine setting makes the pear center diamond and small round stones in the band shine bright.
Unique and Personalized Settings
In 2023, expressing yourself and your aesthetic through your jewelry is in. If you prefer more intricate details, you are likely to find a gorgeous, intricately designed setting that is just right for you!
There are so many one-of-a-kind settings you can choose from. If you’re looking for an ethereal or nature-inspired setting, The Twig ring is a unique twist on the classic solitaire.
The stunning boho-style ring looks fantastic, with a few round diamonds embedded in its branches. It’s unique in its own right, and graciously places the pear diamond in the spotlight.
Matching Pairs
Now more than ever, matching your engagement ring to create a perfect set with a matching wedding band is a major trend! Pears are a great pick for stacking rings together because their elongated shape overlays wedding bands beautifully.
You can mix and match your matching sets, choose simple gold bands or pave-encrusted sets. You can’t go wrong with stacking your engagement ring with another band: the set always enhances the shine of your center diamond.
The lengthened shape of pears make them the perfect match for chevron bands. If you choose a chevron band to make a matching set with your vintage- or one-of-a-kind setting, you’ll be rocking the most trendy wedding ring look out there!
You might be looking for a diamond that is versatile and can be paired with lots of different bands. The elongated structure of the pear makes it so it overhangs just over whichever wedding band you choose. This makes for a truly beautiful set, and one that can be switched up with whatever band you choose!
Dainty, Detailed Settings
Minimalist setting designs look flattering on the hand. They elongate the finger, can enhance the sparkle of the stone, create a flush set with matching wedding bands, and don’t overpower the beauty of the center stone.
If you plan on stacking your ring and would like a flush set, be sure to go for a high profile setting like the Hidden Halo Penelope. The halo structure elevates the pear diamond, which makes it possible for the diamond to slide over smoothly any wedding band. This is especially important if you want to create an elegant, flush set with a trendy eternity band down the line.
So Which Ring is the One For You?
We understand how big a decision it is to choose your engagement ring style and center diamond! Luckily for you, you cannot go wrong with the timeless trends of 2023. Pear-shaped engagement rings will always be a timeless, elegant choice. Any setting will flatter this uniquely cut diamond and will be gorgeous for years to come.
