I have tapered baguettes on mine as well! Mine is oval but I love the pear!
I’m partial to pear cut.
I’m bias towards the pear and I only were silver tone but it’s up to you what you prefer I just love a good pear shape since it’s flattering on any size finger!
pear!
Both are great, but I prefer the pear.
I prefer the pear with silver for sure! But they are both beautiful.
The pear for you, the emerald for me!
I love the pear and the platinum on you! Both are beautiful though!!
Love them both but I vote platinum for you!
I’m biased! I have an emerald with tapered baguettes and think it’s so classic and pretty.

Pear cut!
Emerald
left is gorge!!
Love the pear
Pear
Love the emerald cut with gold!!!
I think platinum is way more flattering on your skin than gold, so I prefer the pear one. But, if you got the emerald one in platinum I think that would also be gorgeous and it’s a timeless style.
Pear! More flattering, looks larger, and more sparkle!
The pear would be my choice, but they’re both very nice.
I think the platinum metal looks best on you. Is it possible to get the emerald in platinum?
I think the white gold looks nicer with your skin tone!
Pear
I am a huge emerald cut fan but I love the pear. I’m not sure if it’s the cut of the stone or how it looks on your hand but it’s gorgeous!
I like pear ! But thats because in biased (i have a pear). But both are great
I love the emerald personally so that’s my pick, but just to be clear, there is no wrong answer 😍
Emerald!

A better pic of the emerald 🙂
Although my personal preference is always gold> silver, I must say that pear looks really nice on you!

I’m partial to the pear! Such a classic setting. You can’t go wrong with either
I LOVEEEE the emerald and I think this particular one with yellow gold is perfect
I actually love the emerald cut on you, it’s such a classic, elegant shape for your finger. But actually I think the cooler metal (white gold, silver, platinum) looks better against your skin. I feel the gold blends in too much.
I prefer the emerald cut with the baguettes, since the step cuts are complimentary.
Pear is more unique it’s my choice
Don’t know if it’s just the picture but the pear looks to have great clarity! I personally love yellow gold but I’m loving the white gold with your complexion
Definitely pear! Without a question! And congratulations!
I’m an emerald cut girlie but I have to say, that pear + ring colour is so beautiful and super complimentary to your skin tone.
i LOVE the first one, but both look good!
Emerald cut!
I really like the emerald cut!
If I had to pick, pear. But both are winners.
