A V-shaped prong caps the sharp point of the pear-cut diamond. It's there for protection, but it also completes the teardrop shape. The band itself is set with small diamonds that sit almost flush with the surface, so nothing snags on your clothes.
The ring is built around a pear-cut centre diamond held by three prongs. Two simple claws hold the rounded end, while a V-prong secures the pointed tip. The band is about 2 mm wide and is lined with 22 small, round diamonds set in a French pavé style. This means the metal is carved away from the sides, letting you see more of each stone and letting more light pass through them. The band is polished smooth on its sides and bottom.
We make this ring in your choice of 14-karat or 18-karat gold. 14K gold is 58.3% pure gold mixed with stronger alloys, which means it’s very durable for everyday wear. We then plate the gold with rhodium, a platinum-group metal. This gives the ring its bright, silvery-white colour and protects it from scratches and tarnish. You can choose a natural or a lab-grown centre diamond. The pavé diamonds are set by hand, one by one, into tiny V-shaped cuts in the band.

This ring is for someone who likes the classic look of a diamond pavé band but wants a centre stone with more character than a simple round brilliant. The pear cut elongates the finger, and the thin 2mm band keeps the focus entirely on the diamonds.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this pear-cut engagement ring have a V-shaped prong on the tip?
The V-prong is there to protect the diamond's sharpest and most vulnerable point from chipping. It securely cups the tip without adding bulk, preserving the pear shape while providing essential protection for daily wear. The other two prongs hold the rounded end of the stone.
Is it safe to shower or wash my hands while wearing this gold and diamond engagement ring?
Yes, you can wash your hands and shower with your ring on. However, soaps, lotions, and hard water can leave a film on the diamonds, dulling their sparkle. We recommend removing it or cleaning it regularly with a soft brush and gentle soap to keep it bright.
How do I know what size to get for this 2mm pavé engagement ring so it doesn't fall off?
Your ring should be snug enough that it won't slide off over your knuckle, but loose enough to turn on your finger without friction. Since fingers can swell with heat or activity, it's best to measure at the end of the day when your finger is at its largest.
What happens if I order this engagement ring and it's the wrong size?
We offer a 30-day return or exchange window from the date you receive your ring. Just email returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label and instructions. The ring must be in its original, unworn condition to be eligible.
How long does shipping take for a gold ring to the United States or the UK?
Shipping typically takes 5-15 business days. We offer free shipping on orders over $60 CAD to Canada and the US, and on orders over $110 CAD to the UK and EU. You'll receive a tracking number as soon as your order is dispatched from our Coquitlam studio.
