The Stone(s)
This architectural drop design organizes 3.02 total carats of lab grown diamonds across three distinct geometric cuts, each chosen for its specific optical behavior within the cluster:
- Dangling Pear-Cut Drop (Accent Position): Two pear-shaped lab grown diamonds totaling 1.40 ct (0.70 ct individual weight, G-H color, VS clarity, Ideal cut grade). The teardrop outline features a tapered tip expanding into a rounded base, cut with a modified brilliant facet arrangement that maximizes scintillation along the central vertical axis.
- Upper Cluster Center (Center Position): Two round brilliant lab grown diamonds totaling 0.78 ct (0.39 ct individual weight, E-F color, VS clarity, Ideal cut grade). Cut to 57–58 precise facet angles, these stones form the central anchor of the upper motif, drawing light directly into the core of the setting.
- Upper Cluster Petals (Shoulder Position): Four marquise brilliant lab grown diamonds totaling 0.84 ct (0.21 ct average individual weight, E-F color, VS clarity, Excellent cut grade). The elongated point-to-point silhouette extends diagonally outward from the central round stone, simulating organic leaf geometry while mitigating dark central extinction (bow-tie effect) through aligned pavilion faceting.
All lab grown diamonds supplied by Primira are grown using advanced CVD or HPHT processes and are eye-clean at VS clarity. Individual stones are laser-inscribed on the girdle with unique report numbers verifiable through IGI.
The Setting
The setting combines rigid structural framing in the upper cluster with articulated mechanical movement in the drop:
- Upper Cluster Architecture: The central round diamond is secured within four low-profile corner claws. Flanking marquise diamonds are held by specialized tip-and-side prongs that outline each stone without obstructing incoming ambient light.
- Gallery Construction: Built on an open-back tapered cast gallery in solid gold. The open framework allows maximum light entry through the pavilion facets and simplifies routine cleaning.
- Articulated Drop Loop: A solid, cast gold loop connects the upper cluster to the lower pear setting. This hinge provides smooth pendulum movement, allowing the pear drop to respond to the wearer’s natural motion.
- Lower Pear Setting: A 3-prong basket grips the pear stone, including a protective V-prong at the vulnerable pointed tip to shield the corner from lateral impacts.
- Prong Finishing: Manufactured with white gold prong tips over a yellow gold frame to prevent yellow color reflection from bleeding into the E-F and G-H diamond bodies.
Metals and Finish
Cast in heavy-gauge 18K Two-Tone Gold (750 fineness: 75% pure gold alloyed with silver and copper for structural resilience). The primary structural frame is finished in warm 18K yellow gold, while the individual setting heads and prong claws feature white gold with rhodium plating.
The metal framework weighs a solid 12.00 grams (12.60 grams gross weight including stones), providing resistance to bending or post deformation during daily handling. Standard ear posts are fitted with double-notched friction push-backs.
Alternative alloy tiers available via custom order include 10K Gold (417), 14K Gold (585), 950 Platinum, or single-tone monochromatic finishes (all-white, all-yellow, or rose gold).
Customisation and Origin
Every pair is produced to order and can be modified across all technical parameters. Available stone tiers range from 0.50 ct to 3.00 ct individual drop weights, with color grades available from D through I, and clarity options from VVS1 through VS2.
The mechanical loop hinge isolates the pear drop’s pendulum movement from the main post, preventing the earring body from pulling forward against the earlobe during movement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the friction push-back posts be upgraded to threaded screw-backs?
A: Yes. During the 24-hour post-purchase WhatsApp/email confirmation window, you can request threaded posts with screw-backs or lever-backs at no additional charge prior to casting.
Q: Why are two different color tiers (E-F and G-H) used in this design?
A: The E-F colorless diamonds are utilized in the upper cluster where smaller stones benefit from maximum brightness. The lower 0.70ct individual pear drops use G-H near-colorless diamonds, which offer optimal color consistency and face up completely white in 18K yellow and two-tone mountings while optimizing overall value.
Q: Is the dangling pear drop removable?
A: As a standard design, the articulation loop is permanently closed during assembly for security. If you require a detachable jacket or drop mechanism, our team can modify the CAD framework during post-purchase confirmation.
