Choosing an engagement ring is one of the most meaningful decisions in your love story. While the diamond’s sparkle is timeless, the cut you choose says something unique about your personality and style. Two shapes that have captivated modern brides across the UK are the oval diamond and the pear shaped diamond.
At Aurika Gems, we specialize in custom-crafted, ethical, and beautifully timeless rings. Whether you’re seeking the elegance of oval diamond engagement rings in UK or the distinctive flair of a pear shaped engagement ring in UK, we offer rings that are as personal as your commitment.
Why the Oval Cut Is the UK’s Favourite Engagement Ring Trend
A Shape of Subtle Sophistication
The oval diamond blends the sparkle of a round brilliant cut with a more elongated, elegant form. It's no surprise that oval diamond engagement rings in UK have surged in popularity among modern couples looking for something slightly different yet still classic.
Benefits of choosing an oval diamond:
Appears larger per carat due to its elongated shape
Flattering on the hand, elongating the fingers
Timeless with a twist, suitable for any setting style
Excellent brilliance, especially in high-quality cuts
Oval rings also photograph beautifully, making them a top choice for engagement announcements and wedding shots.
Pear Shaped Engagement Ring in UK: A Unique Symbol of Romance
The Diamond with a Story
The pear shaped diamond combines a rounded base with a pointed tip, creating a teardrop-like silhouette. Whether worn with the point facing up or down, this shape is for those who want to express their individuality.
Why choose a pear shaped engagement ring in UK:
A stand-out style that’s less common
Beautifully unique, symbolic of emotional depth
Versatile orientation, worn depending on personal style
Ideal for artistic and vintage designs
At Aurika Gems, we ensure our pear shaped diamonds are set in secure and elegant settings to protect their delicate tips while enhancing their one-of-a-kind appearance.
Comparing the Cuts: Oval vs. Pear Shaped
Both shapes are elegant and eye-catching, but each has distinct characteristics that suit different tastes and styles.
| Feature | Oval Diamond Ring | Pear Shaped Diamond Ring |
|---|---|---|
| Shape | Rounded and elongated | Teardrop, asymmetrical |
| Style | Classic with a modern twist | Bold, expressive, and romantic |
| Visual Size | Appears larger than round diamonds | Elongates the finger naturally |
