Diamond shape guide
Pear-Shaped Diamond
A tapered point and rounded end that create a directional silhouette. Proportions and individual appearance vary, so compare specific diamonds rather than relying on the name alone.
What to compare
Look beyond the outline.
- Overall length-to-width balance and how it reads face-up
- Facet pattern, brightness, and any visible areas you want to understand
- How the shape fits the intended setting and finger or piece
- The grading report and exact specifications for the individual diamond
Natural and lab-grown options can be discussed without assuming either is currently in stock.

Shape is personal. Looking across two or three related outlines can make the preference clearer.
