A statement size
At over 23 mm long, this pear is a centrepiece for a bold pendant or a brooch. A bezel or a V-prong at the tip keeps the point protected.
Colour notes
Dark slate blue pairs well with white gold or silver for a cool evening look. Yellow gold gives a richer, more traditional contrast.
Big stones like this deserve a setting with a solid back for strength. Ask your jeweller about a frame that keeps the stone secure without hiding it.
It suits someone who likes a strong, bold piece.
