Two-Stone Setting matching chains for couples
Two-stone settings are gaining popularity for pear shaped rings. In this style, the pear is set with another diamond shape. These can be round, heart shaped, ovals, or marquises. As you might imagine, the unique side-byside setting is very attractive and ideal for those who feel that two diamonds can be better than just one. This setting will look balanced if the diamonds used are of similar size and colour.
Angled Pear Setting
An angle is another way to set the pear-shaped gemstone. If you want to set the pear-shaped diamond on an angle, instead of facing it up or down turn it towards 3 o’clock or 10 O’clock. This angle is ideal for a diamond solitaire pear.
Pave Setting
A pave diamond is a setting in which small diamonds have been connected by tiny prongs or drops of metal. Pave settings have a brilliant sparkle that draws attention to the center stone, without taking it away. They're also very affordable, so they are an excellent choice for couples looking for a pear-shaped engagement ring.
Vintage Setting
Pear-shaped Diamonds look great in ornate vintage settings. The vintage effect can be achieved without having to choose an older ring. Metal engravings, accented diamonds, mixed metals or colored stones can give a vintage feeling, even if it was created yesterday.
Bezel Setting
We have already mentioned that it is important to protect the pointed end of a pear shaped diamond. A bezel setting will do this. A bezel setting is also a good choice for aesthetic reasons. A bezel can add a touch of vintage charm to a pear-shaped diamond. You can also avoid the prongs altogether if that's not your style.
Split-Shank Setting
A split-shank is an elegant option for any type of ring. It's also one of most popular pear-shaped setting options. It's especially lovely when the shank separates as it moves towards the diamond. When the band of a diamond is shaped like a pear, the widening of the band at your finger's edges and its pointy base will flatter your hand as well as the diamond.
Double Band Setting
The double band setting, like a split shank has two instead one shank. The shanks don't connect. Instead, the shanks connect at two points - one at the mid to top of the pear and another at the center to bottom of diamond. This setting looks beautiful on long fingers.
East-West Setting
Setting a diamond in a pear shape is flexible, and the direction you choose to do it can also be varied. In an east-west set, the stone faces either directly east (or directly west) so that when it is placed on the ring finger, it appears to be on its back. This is a highly desirable setting for unique and fashionable brides.
