While round brilliant cut diamonds are still the most popular choice for engagement rings, more and more couples are searching for something that will set them apart from the crowd.  A great way for your ring to stand out is by selecting a ring that features a unique cut or style. There are many different options when it comes to fancy cut diamonds and gemstones, but one shape in particular has recently seen a huge upsurge in popularity: the pear-cut. Pear-cut engagement rings are all the rage right now.

But here’s the deal:

Pear-cut engagement rings are nothing new! This fancy shape has been around for over 500 years. Engagement ring trends are always fluctuating, but right now, it seems the pear-cut engagement ring certainly has the spotlight. So why have they suddenly become so popular? Maybe Margot Robbie or Sophie Turner’s pear-cut engagement rings helped jumpstart a new trend. Or it could have been Paris Hilton’s recent engagement- have you seen her whopping 20-carat pear-cut ring?! Or maybe it’s simply because of their undeniable beauty. Who knows? Whatever the reason, we’re happy to see it’s the pear-cut engagement ring’s time to shine. We’ve selected six of our favorite pear-cut engagement rings to show you just why this trend is so popular.

The classic solitaire is always a stunning choice for an engagement ring. But when choosing a fancy cut diamond, like this pear-cut, it’s even more eye-catching! Just look how stunning this pear-cut diamond looks standing on its own, and the pavé band adds the perfect hint of extra dazzle.

A step up from the classic solitaire, the halo design is one of the most popular styles for engagement rings. The cathedral setting and high polished band draws all the attention to the center stone, and the halo helps to make the diamond appear to be even larger!

If you’re looking for a ring with an abundance of sparkle, this pear-cut engagement ring is sure to mesmerize you. Sparkling pavé diamonds extend around the band for a look of continuous sparkle and ultimate brilliance. With a high cathedral setting, the center pear diamond appears to float above the glittering band.

At first glance, you might think this ring features a split shank band. But it’s slightly different. This unique design is like nothing you’ve ever seen. The double row of bands is the perfect backdrop for this incredible pear-cut diamond. Although the two bands are connected, the second band could be worn as a wedding band. Or it could just be a way of adding extra glitz and glam to your engagement ring. It’s entirely up to you to decide!

Looking to modernize your engagement ring by adding a bit of color? This double halo ring features haloes of white and fancy yellow diamonds, adding a brilliant pop of color and additional sparkle. The pear-cut diamond, double halo design, and double pavé bands are sure to captivate attention from across any room!

If you truly wish to set yourself apart from the crowd, opt for a center stone other than a diamond. This pear-cut morganite combined with a rose gold setting creates a charming and delicate appearance. The peachy blush tones of this ring are the perfect accessory for any blushing bride-to-be. Just look at that magnificent sparkle!
