Pear-Shaped Diamond Bracelets for Women
A round diamond looks the same from every side. A pear doesn't: it has a rounded end and a point, so it always seems to be heading somewhere. On a bracelet that sense of direction shapes the whole piece, whether it's one teardrop on a chain, a pear swinging below the wrist, or a whole line of pears leaning the same way.
A Shape With a Point
A pear is a brilliant cut, so it sparkles like a round, but its outline narrows from a soft curve to a single tip. That tip is what gives the shape its energy, and it's also the most delicate part of the stone, since the diamond is thinnest there. Good settings protect it: a V-shaped prong cups the point, or a bezel wraps it entirely in a smooth rim of gold.
Which way the point faces varies from design to design. On some bracelets it leads toward the hand, which lengthens the look of the fingers; on others it runs toward the elbow or the clasp, which gives a softer, more relaxed line. The product photos show each one, and neither is wrong. It simply changes how the bracelet reads on the wrist.
One Pear on a Chain
The simplest way to wear the shape is a single pear solitaire on a fine chain. We make it in white natural and lab-grown diamonds, each in a bezel or in prongs. The bezel version is the practical everyday choice, smooth against sleeves and fully protective of the tip. The prong version shows the full outline and lets more light pass through, so the stone looks brighter and a little larger. Both sit within the full range of shapes in our solitaire bracelets.
A Pear That Swings
The dangling pear bracelet hangs a small lab-grown pear, 0.07 carats, from the chain so it falls point-down below the wrist. Because it's free to move, it catches light every time you turn your hand, and it reads more playful than a fixed stone. It's light enough to wear daily and stacks easily with a watch or a tennis line.
Pears in a Row
Line pears up link after link and the bracelet takes on a rhythm. Our 1.70 carat pear tennis bracelet, in natural or lab-grown diamonds, sets every teardrop facing the same direction, so the line looks like a row of small leaves or falling drops. It's more decorative than a round line but just as flexible, and it moves the same way on the wrist. You'll find it with every other line in our tennis bracelets.
Pear and Round, Alternating
The 1.30 carat pear-and-round line places small rounds between the pears. The rounds break up the direction of the teardrops, so the pattern looks lighter and more balanced, and the bracelet reads as sparkle from a distance with the pear shapes showing up close. It's lab-grown, and it's a good choice if a full pear line feels too ornate.
Pears also appear in our multi-shape designs, mixed with other cuts: the by-the-yard and station bracelets, the east-west multi-shape tennis line and the 2.50 carat multi-shape bracelet.
Pears in Color
Eight pear solitaires carry a colored diamond: pink, yellow, blue or green, in a bezel or in prongs. They're lab-grown diamonds colored by treatment after growth, and every listing says so. The point of a pear tends to gather color, so the shade looks slightly deeper toward the tip, which suits the shape's sense of movement. See every color in our colored diamond bracelets.
Lab-grown stones in this collection are grown by CVD. Lab-grown diamonds from 1 carat carry an IGI report, natural diamonds from half a carat carry an IGI or GIA report, and any piece over $800 includes a GSI jewelry certificate. Pear bracelets are sized to your wrist when you order, and come in 10K, 14K or 18K yellow, white or rose gold; many are also offered in 925 sterling silver, though not every design. Rose gold flatters the softer pear-and-round line, while white gold keeps a row of pears crisp and icy.
A Pear Bracelet for the Bride
Pear engagement rings have a romantic outline, and a pear bracelet lets that shape appear a second time on the wedding day. With a pear solitaire ring, a 1.70 carat pear tennis line repeats the teardrop in every link and makes the ring and wrist read as a pair. If the ring has a halo or a busy band, the pear-and-round line or a single bezel pear keeps the wrist quieter so the ring leads.
The pear has also long been linked with "tears of joy", which makes it a fitting wedding-day shape. Many brides receive the bracelet on the morning of the wedding as a gift from their partner, and a dangling pear makes a tender choice because it moves with every gesture during the vows and the first dance.
The dress guides the setting. Lace, tulle and beading call for a bezel pear, which won't catch delicate fabric. A clean satin or crepe gown leaves room for the prong-set tennis line, whose open settings make the most of photographers' lights. A blue pear solitaire, lab-grown and treated, makes a discreet "something blue" that becomes an everyday bracelet afterward.
For bridesmaids, small dangling pears give the whole party matching sparkle at a gentle price, or each bridesmaid can wear a colored pear chosen to match her dress. The mothers of the couple suit a white bezel pear, polished without competing with the bride. Our guide to picking a wedding bracelet covers fit and timing, while our pear engagement rings and pear wedding bands finish the set on the hand.
