Loose Pear Moissanite
Loose pear moissanite, glistening bright like an angelic tear, this unique shaped moissanite is one of the most popular moissanites shapes. Endowed with remarkable brilliance, the pear cut moissanite can also be regarded as a hybrid cut created by the combination of the round cut and the marquise cut, thus forming a roundish curve at one end and a pointed narrow corner at the other end. Due to the tapered corner, the pear moissanite like other fancy moissanite shapes, also appears larger in the slender fingers as compared to the geometrical moissanite shapes that are mostly prevalent.
To acquire perfection in the cut of the pear shaped moissanite, there are some conventions that are to be followed. Firstly, the pointed end of the loose pear cut moissanite must be in the straight line with the apex point on the other rounded corner. Secondly, the two halves of the pear loose moissanite must be symmetrically curved to produce two completely identical wings.
Then only the complete beauty of the pear shaped moissanite will truly unfold. As can be witnessed in other fancy cuts, the brilliance and fire of pear moissanites is also remarkable with the presence of bow-tie effect in the moissanite. The triangular cut facets numbering up to 58 gives a prism like effect creating maximum reflection to present aura of shimmering light.
The length to width ratio of the pear shape moissanite stone is generally in the varying range from 1.40 -1.70 revealing choices from plump pear shaped moissanite to narrow pear shaped moissanites to select from.
The perfect setting for a genuine pear shaped moissanite is prong setting, so that the pointed corner gets protection against chipping or any other damage. Also subtle flaws on the outer surface can be masked using prong setting.
