These sharp ends make the stone very prone to damages like chipping, accidental hits, etc. Hence, if you have a
pear cut diamond, make sure to secure it well using a suitable
pear diamond ring settings. The two most common
pear cut diamond ring settings are
prong and
bezel settings.
Prong Settings
If you want to expose the center stone more, then
prong settings will be a good choice. Most commonly, the
prong settings have a four prong or a six prong to secure the stone. The six-prong setting will be able to secure the stone better than the four-prong setting. In some cases, the pointed edge is left exposed, while in other cases, it is secured with a V-prong.
Bezel Settings
Yet another pear diamond ring setting is the
bezel setting that is known to be safer than the
prong setting. However, as this setting covers the edges of the stone entirely, the sides will not be visible. The
bezel setting will be a good choice if you wear your
pear cut diamond ring daily; if you wear it only once in a while,
prong settings would be a good pick.
