Pear shape, the teardrop, is one of the most elegant and distinctive sapphire shapes. It combines the brilliance of a round at the bottom with a tapered point at the top, creating a flattering elongated look on the finger. Pear sapphires are a favorite for pendants and statement rings. We source ours from partner mines worldwide. Direct, no middlemen. What to look for? Symmetry is crucial in a pear. The point should sit centered above the rounded end, and the shoulders should be even. Avoid stones with a visible "bow tie" dark patch across the middle. The best pear sapphires have vivid, even color distribution throughout. Browse our selection below.
