There are many varieties of
pear diamond engagement ring settings, which serve the purpose of holding your
stone properly in your
ring.
As you may already know, the
pear diamond has a pointed tip at one end and a
round shape on the opposite. Obviously, the pointed tip will be highly prone to damages, accidental hits, or chipping. Yet as you are buying an expensive
stone, you need to protect it well. This is when selecting one of the best pear diamond
engagement ring settings becomes so important.
Generally, the most common
settings for
pear cut diamond rings are the
bezel setting and the
prong setting. In
prong settings, the
pear cut diamond will be very visible as
prongs hold the
diamond. However, this
setting may still make the
stone vulnerable to damages and fall off when the
prongs loosen. On the contrary, the
bezel setting holds the
diamond by encircling around its edges, that protects the
stone well. However, the
bezel setting makes the
stone less visible when compared to the
prong setting.
