Your Pear Solitaire Engagement Ring Questions, Answered

What do the specs 1.50ct, E colour and VVS2 clarity mean?

Good question, since these grades decide a lot. The 1.50ct is the weight of the pear centre diamond, a large, glamorous size that looks even bigger thanks to the elongated shape. E colour sits near the very top of the colour scale, so the diamond looks bright and white with no visible tint. VVS2 stands for very very slightly included, near the top of the clarity scale, meaning any natural features are so tiny that even a trained eye struggles to spot them under magnification. So this is a large, exceptionally white and remarkably clean diamond, shown off beautifully in a clean solitaire setting.

What does IGI certified mean?

It means the centre diamond comes with an independent quality report from the International Gemological Institute, one of the world’s leading diamond laboratories. IGI examines the stone and documents its carat, cut, colour, and clarity, so you are not just taking our word for its quality, you have it confirmed in writing by an independent expert. So an IGI certificate gives you real peace of mind and proves exactly what you are buying, which also helps with insurance and future valuation. We provide the certificate with your ring, so you know your 1.50ct E VVS2 pear diamond is precisely as described.

Are lab grown diamonds real diamonds?

Yes, completely. A lab grown diamond is a real diamond, with the exact same chemical, physical, and optical properties as one mined from the earth. The only difference is the origin, since it is grown in a controlled setting rather than dug from the ground. So it sparkles identically, tests as a real diamond, and lasts just as long. Why choose lab grown? Value, mostly. You get a larger, higher grade stone for your budget, like this beautiful 1.50ct E VVS2 pear, for far less than an equivalent mined diamond. It is real brilliance, simply made differently.

What is the chevron band, and why is it shaped that way?

The chevron band is what gives this ring its distinctive character. Rather than a straight band, it rises to a soft point, or peak, above the diamond, following the line of the pear’s tip. Why do it this way? The shape cradles and frames the pear beautifully, drawing the eye to the stone and giving the ring a modern, elegant silhouette. It also means a matching curved or chevron wedding band can nestle perfectly against it later. So the design is both a stylish detail and a practical one, a contemporary twist on a timeless solitaire.

Which way should the pear point when worn?

Traditionally, a pear engagement ring is worn with the point facing up, towards the fingernail, which is exactly how the chevron band is designed to frame it here. This is the most popular way, and it has a lovely benefit, since the point draws the eye upward and makes the finger look even longer and more slender. There is no strict rule, but this setting is made to show the pear at its most flattering. When we size the ring, we will make sure it sits securely and comfortably. Come in and try it on to see how beautifully it suits you.
