3 things to know when choosing a pear cut platinum engagement ring!

  1. Unique shape: Pear cuts are one of two diamond shapes which are not symmetrical. This is because a pear shape has a point at the top and a rounded bottom. Because of this difference in shape, it is important to ensure your stone’s cutting is perfect. One major thing to look for is that the left and right sides of your stone mirror each other. Another is to ensure a centered culet. Learn more about ensuring your pear cut platinum engagement ring has the perfect stone here.
  2. Wedding band options: Some couples prefer to highlight a pear cut’s unique shape by pairing their pear cut platinum engagement ring with a chevron band like our Danica. Chevron bands are a great option because they accentuate a pear’s shape, whether you prefer to wear it point up or point down!
  3. Platinum patina: Platinum is a gorgeous, high end metal that holds diamonds more securely than gold. One misconception people have about platinum, however, is that its spectacular durability does not mean that it keeps its high shine for longer than gold. Instead, platinum develops a vintage patina as it ages. So, when choosing platinum for your pear cut engagement ring, expect your setting to begin to show signs of love and wear. Many people feel that platinum patina looks like a soft velvet or satin!
