At TrueCut, we believe every diamond shape expresses a different kind of personality. The Pear-Shaped Diamond — also known as the teardrop diamond — captures two worlds at once: the symmetry of a round and the elegance of a marquise.
It’s a shape that symbolizes grace, individuality, and emotion — a blend of classic sparkle and soft romance. Whether you wear it pointing upward or downward, the pear shape always tells a story that feels beautifully personal.

The Art Behind the Pear Shape
The pear cut dates back to the 15th century, designed by Flemish craftsman Lodewyk van Bercken, the inventor of the diamond polishing wheel. His vision was to create a diamond that combined the brilliance of the round with the elongated beauty of the marquise — and the result remains one of the most flattering shapes ever created.
Today, TrueCut honors that legacy with precision-cut, lab-grown pear diamonds, polished to perfection for balance, symmetry, and light.
Each pear diamond is carefully crafted with 58 facets, engineered to maximize sparkle while maintaining perfect symmetry between its rounded and pointed ends.
Why People Love Pear Diamonds

The tapered point visually lengthens fingers, giving an elegant, graceful look. -
✨ Unique brilliance
As a hybrid of the round brilliant, the pear offers exceptional fire and sparkle. -
💍 Distinctive personality
Every pear diamond carries a sense of individuality — no two proportions are exactly alike.
