In the previous decade, pear shaped gemstones were deemed old-fashioned and were not chosen by many. However, pear-shaped gemstones seem to be making a comeback, and are thought of as timeless and classic, rather than old-fashioned. The pear shape is sometimes also referred to as a "teardrop" shape and is a combination of an oval and a marquise. While all
pear-shaped gems have one rounded end and one pointed end, some may be long and narrow, and others may be short and wide. Pear-shaped gems may also be faceted or cut en cabochon.
Pear-shaped gems are ideal for rings, pendants and earrings.
