Hi Wawa, good to see you!

To answer your questions, it would be best to work with a vendor that can source you some matching pears, its going to be very difficult to do this otherwise. As to thin or fat pears, this is personal preference, go with the type your prefer. A good size... I would say my preference is from around half a carat upwards but again this depends on preference and budget.

I would try these vendors

www.goodoldgold.com

www.whiteflash.com

www.jamesallen.com

what does the characteristic feather and twining wisp on the GIA report stand for? are they desirable?
