{"product_id":"1-5ct-pear-solitaire-engagement-ring-14k-gold","title":"1.5ct Pear Lab-Grown Diamond Solitaire Engagement Ring – 14K Gold","description":"\u003ch2\u003e1.5 Carat Pear Lab-Grown Diamond Solitaire Engagement Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1.5ct pear cut Lab-Grown Diamond, D–F color, VS+ clarity, IGI certified, held in five prongs, one seated over the point, on a plain polished band in solid 14K gold. Made to order in 7 to 10 business days on my bench in Woodside, Queens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow big is a 1.5 carat pear diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoughly 10mm long by 6.5mm wide. A 1ct pear runs about 8mm by 5mm, so this is a full 2mm longer — and on a hand 2mm of length is the difference between a pretty ring and a ring people ask about. At this size the pear is one of the two longest shapes you can buy at any weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich way should the point face?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eToward your fingertip. That is the convention and it is also what makes the shape work — the taper pointing outward is what lengthens the hand. Worn the other way the stone reads shorter and the point sits against the knuckle, which catches more and is less comfortable. Yours is set point-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the point going to chip at this size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tip is the vulnerable part of any pear and the risk does not go away as the stone gets larger — if anything a bigger stone stands taller and takes more hits. Yours is covered: five prongs hold it, two at the rounded end, two along the sides and one seated over the point, so the sharpest edge sits under metal rather than exposed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoes a pear make your finger look longer?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore than an oval does, because the taper draws the eye in one direction instead of both. At 1.5 carats the effect is pronounced on any hand and dramatic on shorter fingers. It is the main reason people cross over from oval to pear once they have tried both.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat color and clarity is the diamond?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eD through F, the colorless range, and VS+ clarity, eye-clean at any angle. Color matters more on a pear than a round because tapered shapes pool body color at the tip — a warmer grade shows yellow at the point where a round would hide it entirely, and it shows more the larger the stone gets. Staying in D–F keeps the tip as white as the belly. The IGI report ships with the ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat about the bow-tie?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery pear has one across its widest part, and like the bow-tie in an oval it gets more visible as stones grow. It appears on no lab report. I check each pear face-up at the bench rather than buying to a specification sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich wedding band fits a pear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA chevron or contoured band, for two reasons. The first is the point: a straight band leaves a wedge of daylight where the tip crosses it. The second applies to every ring I build at this weight — there is a second gallery under the head, an extra rail of gold beneath the basket that carries the stone's weight and stops the prongs flexing over years of wear. Most makers leave it out. A straight band meets that gallery rather than the shank and stands off; a curved band clears it and nests flush. I make both to order, so tell me and I will cut the pair to meet properly — or start with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/curved-wedding-band-plain-contour\"\u003eplain contour band\u003c\/a\u003e or the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/curved-diamond-wedding-band-contour\"\u003epavé contour\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long does it take, and can it be resized?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade to order in 7 to 10 business days, sizes 4 through 9 including halves. Resizing is complimentary within 60 days of delivery, craftsmanship carries a lifetime warranty, and you have 14 days to return it if it is not right and you have not had it engraved. It ships fully insured in our signature suede pouch with the IGI report.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWant a different weight or shape?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe same ring runs at \u003ca href=\"\/products\/1ct-pear-solitaire-engagement-ring-14k-gold\"\u003e1ct\u003c\/a\u003e.

Nothing here sits in a case waiting for a buyer — yours is cast, set and finished after you order it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black Pearl of Queens INC","offers":[{"title":"4 \/ 14K Yellow
