The Experience

How this piece wears

Afghan Pear sits as a fixed elongated focal point, with the tapered gemstone and surrounding goldwork creating a clear directional silhouette.

Its final orientation can be selected during professional fitting to complement the available anatomy and surrounding jewellery.

The tapered pear silhouette introduces length while the surrounding gold detailing adds texture and width. Its central gemstone creates a clear focal point, making Afghan Pear particularly effective for bringing both colour and ornamental detail into a jewellery arrangement. Richly ornamental and gemstone-led. The smaller version creates a refined decorative accent, while the 10 x 8mm Afghan Pear has significantly greater presence and allows the central gemstone and detailed goldwork to become a defining feature. An elongated, dimensional gemstone design with a tapered pear silhouette and decorative gold frame. The larger version creates a broader statement, while the 7 x 5mm design retains the same ornamental character within a more compact footprint.
