Help with a Pear ASET!

[piepod]

Hey y'all! Got shown this for 22.5k....what do you guys think? Its a little over 2 carat, F, VS2

The ASET is a little uninspiring to me, but I'm a little colorblind and unsure of what a pear should look like. The proportions are quite great and everything else I'm happy with. Just want to make sure it sparkles outside the store!

Bump!

No bow tie, Average performance. Pears are not easy.

Do you have a link to a video? Pears are hard.

Here it is (away from the shop LEDs as well)!

It actually looked great at the store so I'm happy with it. I guess it's just hard to find spectacular light performance with a pear. Cut proportions and GIA looked great

It looks pretty. It has a lovely pear shape. Mostly smaller facets which will provide more twinkly flashes versus larger
flashes. What type of setting are you looking to put it in?

I own a 1 carat pear (my original ering). My advice is to keep it very clean. Fancy cuts do not have as good of light return
as well-cut rounds. You sort of choose to appreciate them for their lovely shape and less so for their light return. Make
sure you understand this before buying. I would compare it with some well-cut rounds so you can tell/see the difference
in light return/sparkle. The nice thing about this stone is there does not look like there will be any bow-tie.

‘Pears are not easy’. Never have truer words been typed here….

Was planning to do a halo!
