What this ring is made of

Cushion and pear
A square or slightly rectangular stone with softly rounded corners. It feels romantic and a little antique, and comes in styles from broad flashes to a finer, crushed-ice sparkle.
Pear
A teardrop with one point. Worn with the point toward the fingertip it lengthens the hand. The point is the most fragile part of the stone, so pears are usually protected there with a prong or a V-shaped tip.
Prongs
Small metal claws hold the stone from above. They let in the most light and show the most of the stone, and they should be checked by a jeweler every year or so.
18k yellow gold
18k yellow gold is 75% pure gold, so the color is rich and warm. It is softer than 14k, which means it scratches a little more easily and can wear at the prongs sooner.
