1.00 ct Pear Diamond

86/100 · Refined

A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.

What reads well

  • A 1.56:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic pear range.
  • Face-up spread (8.52 × 5.47 mm) is typical or better for a 1.00 ct pear.
  • G color should face up white in most settings.
  • VS2 clarity is typically eye-clean in a pear.
  • No fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.

What deserves a closer look

  • A 64.1% depth is on the deep side for a pear; deeper pavilions are associated with a stronger bow-tie and hidden weight.
  • Medium to very thick girdle: a thick girdle carries hidden weight and can reduce face-up size (thicker points are common in fancy shapes).
  • Screening only: bow-tie, windowing and contrast in a pear can only be judged from images or video of this exact stone.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With 64.1% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 1.00 ct pear?
  • Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
  • Is this VS2 diamond eye-clean face-up from about 10 inches away?
  • Will the ring setting use a protective V-tip prong or bezel to safeguard the delicate point?
