Pear Cut Moissanite Tennis Bracelet, GRA s925 Silver

Pear stones on a tennis bracelet make a different line from the usual rounds. Each teardrop is set pointing the same way, so the bracelet reads as a flowing row of shapes rather than a string of dots. Because the stones are longer than they are wide, they cover more of the wrist at the same carat weight, and the flexible links let the whole bracelet curve around the wrist without gaps showing between stones.

The stones are D colour, VVS1 clarity moissanite and the bracelet is GRA certified. D is the top of the colourless range and VVS1 means clarity flaws are invisible without magnification, which is what you want on a long row where any off colour stone would stand out. Moissanite has a refractive index of about 2.65 against a diamond's 2.42, so it flashes harder, and at 9.25 on the Mohs scale it handles the wear a wrist gives it. The metal is s925 sterling silver with 18k plating.

Choose the setting by how you live. The bezel setting wraps each stone in a thin metal rim, so nothing can snag on a sleeve, which suits people with active hands. The prong setting lifts the stone and lets in more light, which gives the brightest sparkle. Lengths run from 15cm to 20cm, so measure your wrist and add about 1.5cm for a comfortable fit. White gold, yellow gold and rose gold finishes are available.
