Pear cut: romantic and expressive

A pear cut combines a rounded end with a pointed tip. It has a teardrop silhouette that can feel playful, romantic, and highly visible from a distance. Halo settings add extra light-catching detail around the center stone.

Emerald cut: clean and architectural

An emerald cut uses straight lines and step-cut facets for a polished, tailored look. It is a natural match for minimalist wardrobes and for shoppers who prefer geometric design.
