Pear shaped diamonds are sometimes also called teardrop or even pendeloque diamonds due to their unique and unusual shape. They are a kind of brilliant cut diamond that is a combination between oval and marquise cut stones. It can be the perfect choice for a ring. Thus, a pear shaped diamond solitaire engagement ring might be the right choice when asking that special someone to marry you.

However, before we get to that point let us think about and consider some the advantages and disadvantages of choosing such a unique stone shape for a ring. I think the main advantage of a pear shaped engagement ring is the fact that it is unlike any other cut. The ring will stand out either with white or yellow gold or better yet a platinum setting.

When choosing a diamond for the ring you will need to take into account the length to width ratio of the diamond. The traditional ratio for a pear shaped diamond ring is between 1.4 and 1.75. For longer, more slender fingers you could go a bit higher and for shorter plumper fingers you could go a bit lower. But, generally speaking you should try to stick within the recommend guidelines for the best looking ring.

A third and final advantage to picking out a pear shaped diamond solitaire engagement ring is that they tend to crafted to a higher quality. Anybody, with basic knowledge of diamond cutting can make a round cut engagement ring. But, it takes a certain skill to create good looking pear shaped diamonds. Therefore, you can feel confident that the ring you select will not only look great, but last a long time too.

On the other hand, high quality craftsmanship comes at a higher price. You can find basic round cut diamond engagement rings from as little as a few hundred dollars. They may not have the best quality setting or stone but they are cheap. As I mentioned above, pear shaped diamonds are more difficult to cut and thus only tend to be found in higher end jewelry.

This means that while your ring will look great it will cost you. You are going to be hard pressed to find any pear shaped solitaire engagement rings for less than $1,000. With a more realistic price target being anything from $3,000 and up. If money is an issue for you, you may want to hold off buying a pear shaped ring, since low quality will really show.

The second potential downside to a pear shaped diamond engagement ring is the risk of her not liking it. Many woman love the look of these diamonds and rings, but some don't. Always find out what style and cut of gem she prefers before going out and buying something. Not all women want a unique ring, some just want a smaller plain round or princess cut one. Being aware of this can potentially even save you some money.
