In this video we will do a side by side Pear Shaped diamond size comparison on the finger
or hand as well as give you different price comparisons at each cut size.
All along giving you different tips and tricks to help you save on diamond shopping.
Each Pear Cut Size in this video is compared to this 1 Carat Diamond on a hand with a size
6 finger.
This 1 carat diamond at Kay Jewelers like most Brick and Mortar jewelry stores is about
$22,700 and that is because it is very high quality.
Now also on this video we take those diamonds and compare them to the exact same quality
diamond from a website I will put in the description below this video.
So you'd save over $14,800 from my link below this video.
First lets start with a .33 or 1/3 carat pear diamond on the hand.
Compared to a 1 carat pear cut diamond it is very unimpressive and you can barely tell
that it is even a pear shape at this point.
Pear diamonds are normally worn pointing out.
A .5 carat or 1/2 carat pear cut diamond is a more common size of a diamond.
Now, one of the up sides of pear shaped diamonds is that they are generally less expensive
than equal carats of Round Cut Diamonds.
The main reason for that is that round cut does tend to sparkle a tiny bit more than
pear shaped diamonds.
A .75 or 3/4 carat pear shaped diamond is starting to get close to a 1 carat diamond.
The big issue with special cuts like this is they don't get official cut grades like
a round cut diamond does.
Cut grade is imporatant to know because it tells you the most about how much the diamond
sparkles and if the diamond looks as big as the carat suggests.
Watch my other videos for more on this.
Because pear shaped Diamonds tend to sparkle less than round cut diamonds having a great
cut is important to make sure the diamond sparkles at its peak.
If that is important to you I will also link to a diamond website that gives an unofficial
diamond cut grade as well.
Because if you get a bad cut you could get a shadow in the middle of the diamond that
takes away from its sparkle.
I find the cut grade from that website to be pretty accurate too.
I will post that website below as well.
This is a 1 3/4 or 1.75 carat pear cut diamond on the finger.
Pear shaped diamonds can have a longer ratio or a wider ratio.
If you want to save oney a longer ratio may help you out.
I will explain.
This diamond is about 9 mm long and 7 mm wide.
The next pear cut diamond we look at increases the length 1 mm giving it a longer more slender
look.
Its width is still about 7mm.
You can see the carat only increases to 1.8 carats.
This is just the weight of the diamond and not the length of the diamond.
Now diamond weight is the main factor for diamond pricing so this diamond if it were
the same as the last would barely increase price.
Now on this next diamond we increase the width about 1 mm instead of the length so this pear
diamond is 8 by 10 mm and the carat jumps to 2.5 Carats and increase of .7 carat.
Therefore the price of this diamond if all things were equal to the previous would jump
a lot.
Now this pear diamond you see is far from Flawless like the previous so it doesn't reflect
in the price.
Lets look at those three again.
The first is 1.75 carat and 7 by 9 mm.
The Next is 7 by 10mm and only jumps .05 to 1.8 Carat.
Lastly the 8 by 10 mm jumps to 2.5 carat.
All things equal that diamond would be way more expensive.
Of course even better than those three is this 3 carat pear shaped diamond on the finger.
All brick and mortar jewelry stores sell diamonds at an inflated rate.
It costs money to pay for their rent and their salespeople which all inflate the cost of
your diamond.
My biggest tip when buying a diamond is to have your significant other go diamond shopping
at the mall with you or her best friend.
Then make note of the diamond specs that she chooses.
After come back and buy the exact same quality diamond from the link below this video and
you'll save a ton of money or you can spend the same amount of money that you would have
spent at the other diamond store and get an even bigger diamond.
That will definitely impress her.
Then just take that diamond back to the diamond store and have it set in their favorite band.
Or you can buy a similar and less expensive band from one of those websites I have linked
to below.
Like this 3.3 carat pear cut diamond I have on the hand you'd save $29,000 buying it from
the link below.
So in the comments, I will answer any of your personal questions about diamonds you are
