Would you choose an Oval or Pear shape pendant?

Hello :wavey: ,

I am fairly new to posting on here, but thought this is a good time since I'd really like some help from fellow PSers to help me decide on a shape for my current pendant project.

I am looking at resetting my old cut diamond into a pendant. I wanted something classic that would be fitting to the age of the stone. It is a pendant I want to wear often. I found two antique style pendants I am inspired by, but I can't decide between the shape - Oval or Pear. So please help :twirl: ! I would like to make a setting similar to either one of the pendants below but in white gold and probably no accent stones.

I am open to all opinions and ideas ;)

Thank you!

They are both lovely but out of the two I prefer the pear. I think the pear in General is always an elegant and attractive choice for a pendant.
 
Another vote for the pear. I'd really love it in YG with a very white diamond.
 
I'll vote for the pear too; although both designs are really nice.
 
pear for sure.
 
Pear for me too!
 
pear but personally I prefer simple solitaire for pendant I wear my OEC .80 all the time in a simple bezel...
 
Thank for your replies, it looks like the Pear wins :appl:

@ heididdl - do you have any pictures of your pendant? I did think about a simple pendant to start with but then when I tried on some at the shops it looks too small on me. I'd love to see pics though if you have any for inspiration :twirl:
 
of course

Pear here too, but not by a wide margin. The other is also lovely. I think the pear flatters the neckline more. The oval kinda sorta mirrors the shape of ones face and then it's hanging just below it. Either could be very pretty , but my vote goes to pear.
 
Thank you for the photos @ heididdl, your pendant is gorgeous and looks lovely on you! :love:

Thank you @ motownmama - yes, it is a close call between the pear and the oval pendant.

I will let you all know what I decide :?:
 
Tough choice, I like both! But I'm going with the pear.
