Amanda’s Style File: Delicious Pears
Today’s pear-shaped stone jewels are leaving their outdated settings behind to make room for fresh vibes.
This ring from Greenwich St. Jewelers is one example of how today’s brands and designers are reimagining the pear shape with updated styles.
Sometimes, a style of jewelry can just sweep in, seemingly out of nowhere, and become an overnight sensation.
Pear shapes are one of those styles.
Fancy shapes have been climbing in popularity for a while, but pears are officially everywhere, and they’re leaving their outdated settings and negative connotations behind to make room for fresh vibes and stylish settings.
We can’t get enough of the pear-shaped trend that can make simple concepts like eternity bands and two-stone rings feel brand new.
This Amanda’s Style features 20 pieces of pear-shaped jewelry that are nothing short of sweet.
