Four to five carats of deliberate drama.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo pointed stones stacked in one line, both tapering, so the eye travels from the top of the lobe straight down to the tip of the pear without a single interruption. This is the largest earring AVRA makes and it behaves like it. E colour, VS1 clarity, nothing inside either stone to distract from the outline. Put these on and everything else you are wearing can be very, very simple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Diamond Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStones:\u003c\/strong\u003e A marquise-cut lab-grown diamond at the ear, suspending a larger pear-cut lab-grown diamond below\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e VS1+, a full step above our house standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e E+, the whitest grade we work with\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut:\u003c\/strong\u003e Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarat weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 to 5 ctw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSetting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prong-set with protective prongs over each point, and the pear hung on an articulated link\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe higher clarity and colour grades are not a flourish. At four to five carats every stone is large enough that an inclusion or a trace of warmth would be visible from conversation distance. Small diamonds forgive. These do not, which is why we spec them tighter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Metal \u0026amp; Construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid 14k gold throughout, in yellow or white. Not plated, not filled, not vermeil.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour points across two stones, and each one is capped by its own prong. Points are where a diamond is most vulnerable and where cheap versions of this earring fail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe pear hangs on an independent link rather than sitting rigid, so the lower stone moves while the marquise stays fixed at the ear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe marquise is set flush and low against the lobe. At this weight, a high basket would let the whole earring pitch forward within an hour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush backs on both posts. Press them fully home before you leave, because there is real weight hanging on them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt for your order in your chosen metal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ How to Wear It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHair fully up or slicked back. Half-up will not do it. Both stones are pointed and the earring is essentially a strong vertical line, so it needs a clear field to work in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing at the neck. No pendant, no collar, no layered chains. If you want something else on, make it horizontal and make it low: a single cuff or a tennis bracelet at the wrist. Keep the outfit to one colour and one shape. Poire is the piece that decides how the rest of the look behaves, and the women who wear it best treat it as the only decision they made that evening. Worth knowing how this differs from the Solène Drops, which pair a round with a pear: Solène is softer and more everyday, Poire is pointed at both ends and considerably larger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Why Lab-Grown Diamonds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChemically and optically identical to mined diamonds. Same carbon lattice, same 10 on the Mohs scale, same fire.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGraded against the same 4Cs by the same gemological standards, which is how we can promise E colour and VS1 clarity at this size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraceable origin. You know exactly where each diamond came from.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeaningfully better value, and this is the piece where that matters most. Four matched fancy-shape stones at E\/VS1 is the kind of specification that would otherwise price a pair of earrings well past what any of this is worth to you.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Perfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack-tie and galas, where the room is already dressed and you want to still register.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour own wedding, particularly with a bare neckline and hair up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe night you accept the award, take the stage, or host the party.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMilestone birthdays and the anniversaries of things you built yourself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe woman who has already bought the studs, the tennis bracelet and the necklace, and is now buying the piece she actually wanted.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Care \u0026amp; Longevity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid 14k gold will not tarnish or fade. It only needs cleaning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm water, mild soap and a soft brush. Pay attention to the link between the two stones and the underside of both settings, where residue collects fastest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever sleep in these. At four to five carats the drop has genuine weight, and a night of tugging against a pillow is the fastest way to stretch a link or loosen a back.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo showering, no swimming. Chlorine attacks the alloys in gold.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn last, after perfume, hairspray and sunscreen. Off before anything else at the end of the night.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore each earring lying flat in your AVRA box so the pear is not pressed sideways against the marquise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Made to Order\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach pair of Poire Drops is built for your order, with all four stones matched for colour, clarity and taper so the two ears are genuinely identical.
