Pear Shaped Diamonds

Pear Shaped Diamond Prices: Natural and Lab Grown, Every Weight

Rare Carat has 182,348 pear shaped diamonds in stock today, 68,445 natural and 113,903 lab grown, which makes the pear the third largest shape on the site by count. A natural pear starts at $150 and a lab pear at $125 with the current savings applied; in the 0.90 to 1.10 carat band the medians are $2,369 natural and $607 lab. The teardrop outline, round at one end and pointed at the other, spreads about 8 x 5.5 mm at one carat against 6.4 to 6.5 mm for a round, so it reads larger on the hand for the same weight. Every figure on this page comes from inventory on October 17, 2026 and is refreshed regularly.

The things that decide whether a pear is beautiful do not appear on a grading report. The point should sit exactly on the center line of the rounded end, the two shoulders and the two wings should mirror each other, and the dark bow tie that crosses the width of nearly every pear should be faint rather than black. All three show on the 360 HD video, which is why the video count matters more here than on a round.

Length to Width: Short, Classic or Long Pear

The ratio is the first choice to make, because it changes the whole character of the stone. Under 1.45 a pear looks plump and almost like a rounded triangle; 1.45 to 1.59 is the classic teardrop that most settings are made for; 1.60 to 1.74 is long and elegant and covers more finger; 1.75 and over starts to read as a slim marquise with one rounded end. 95 percent of natural pears and 98 percent of lab grown pears here sit in the classic to long range, and the price does not move much with the ratio at the same grade, so pick the outline you like. Longer stones hide a bow tie less well, which is the one reason to watch the video closely above 1.60.

Natural Pear Diamond Prices by Carat

Natural pear prices rise in the same steps as every other shape, with jumps at the full carat marks where demand concentrates: 6,671 natural pears between 0.90 and 1.10 carats have a median of $2,369, 1,361 between 1.90 and 2.10 carats a median of $11,338, and 546 between 2.90 and 3.10 carats a median of $28,603. The bands just under each mark, 1.50 to 1.89 and 2.11 to 2.89 carats, are where a pear buyer finds the most stone for the money, because a pear already looks larger than its weight and the discount for missing the round number is real. Per carat a natural pear costs less than a natural round of the same grade and about the same as an oval.

Lab Grown Pear Diamond Prices by Carat

Lab pears outnumber natural pears here by 113,903 to 68,445, and the deepest band is 0.90 to 1.10 ct with 19,591 stones. Medians run $607 at one carat, $1,671 at two, $2,578 at three and $3,607 at four, so the two to three carat pear that costs five figures in natural is a four figure purchase lab grown. Because the lab supply is so deep, you can hold the ratio, the color and the clarity fixed and still have hundreds of stones to compare on video, which is exactly how to find a pear without a visible bow tie.

Color Gathers at the Point: Grades in a 1 Carat Pear

A pear concentrates body color at its point, where the facets are smallest and the light path shortest, so the same color grade looks a shade warmer in a pear than in a round. Holding clarity at VS2 in 0.90 to 1.10 carat natural pears, D starts at $1,705, F at $1,660, G at $1,295, H at $1,100 and I at $1,020. Our gemologists suggest G or better for a pear in platinum or white gold and H to I in yellow or rose gold, where the metal warms the point anyway. Clarity is more forgiving: the brilliant faceting breaks up inclusions, and with color held at G to H, VS2 starts at $1,100 and SI1 at $1,175, with the one rule that nothing dark should sit under the point or in the center of the table. In lab grown pears 96 percent of the one carat stones on the color ladder are D to F, so color stops being a decision and the money goes to cut quality and a clean video instead.

Pear vs Oval, Natural vs Lab

Buyers usually decide between a pear and an oval cut diamond, and on price the two are close: a one carat natural pear has a median of $2,369 against $2,297 for a natural oval, and lab grown the medians are $607 and $652. The pear wins on finger coverage and on distinctiveness; the oval wins on symmetry, because it has no point to protect or center. Across origins the gap at the same grade is the usual one: a G color VS1 pear in the one carat band starts at $1,530 natural and $400 lab. 60,376 of the natural pears carry GIA reports and 46,393 have no fluorescence; lab pears are graded mostly by IGI (107,522 of 113,903). For the weight most people buy, see 1 carat pear shaped diamonds and 1 carat pear shaped lab grown diamonds.

Buying a Pear Shaped Diamond at Rare Carat

Open the video and pause it face up. Draw an imaginary line from the point through the middle of the rounded end: the two halves should match, the point should be sharp but not chipped, and the bow tie should fade as the stone turns rather than stay black. Then read the AI price score, which compares the stone with similar pears in stock and flags one priced above its peers, and the quality score out of 18. Set the stone with a V prong over the point, which is the only part of a pear that can chip, and decide whether the point faces the fingertip, the classic way, or the wrist. Our gemologists will go through any shortlist with you by chat or phone, without commission.
