Following much speculation from the press, singer Ariana Grande, has confirmed that she is engaged to new boyfriend Pete Davidson, from Saturday Night Live, following less than a month of dating.

Pete recently paid tribute to Ariana with two new tattoos, but it’s the sparkling engagement ring that has caught our attention.

Ariana-Grande Pear Cut Diamond Engagement Ring

Ariana recently took to the stage sporting a huge pear-cut diamond ring on her wedding finger, set in what appears to be either white gold or platinum.

An increasingly popular diamond cut in recent years, pear-cut diamond rings are beginning to top engagement ring trends, and Ariana’s ring is certainly one of the most wonderful rings we’ve seen from the world of celebrities.

Other stars who sport pear-cut engagement rings include, actress Katherine Heigl & singer Cardi B.

It’s easy to see why so many people are discovering pear cut rings and opting for them as engagement rings. Here are our favourite factors about wearing a pear-cut engagement ring.

WHY CHOOSE A PEAR-CUT ENGAGEMENT RING?

  • IT’S UNTRADITIONAL

Choosing an untraditional cut means that your engagement ring will feel particularly unique. Princess and round brilliant cuts will always remain classic, timeless, elegant choices, but opting for something a little different means you’re unlikely to be comparing your ring to others – a pear cut is perfect for any lady who wants to stand out in a crowd.

  • IT’S VERSATILE

Pear cut diamond rings can be worn point up, or point down. There’s no incorrect way to wear this particular cut, it’s entirely up to the individual wearing the ring. But this unique design feature means that any time you like you can change the direction the ring sits on your finger, making the ring feel like new!

  • IT’S FLATTERING

The tapered effect of pear cut diamonds is incredibly flattering when worn. Many women find that the elongated appearance of a pear cut ring, lengthens the finger and creates a truly elegant aesthetic.
