Pear Moissanite Swirl Bypass Bridal Set with Peaked Chevron Band

A shank that swirls around a pear, and a pavé band that rises to meet its point. How the set is built, and the one thing that makes it different from most bridal sets.

Written by the Mapple Gems workshop, Surat · Updated 13 October 2026

Short answer: This set holds a pear moissanite on a polished bypass shank: one end caps the pear’s tip, the other wraps under its rounded base like a partial bezel, and the sides stay open to light. A matching pavé band is worn above the ring and rises to a peak at the pear’s tip. It is made to order in 925 silver or solid 10K, 14K or 18K gold, from 2 to 5 carats.

A bypass ring is one where the band does not meet itself under the stone; instead its two ends pass each other, holding the stone between them. Here that swirl is used to protect the pear exactly where it needs it. The matching band is the unusual part: it goes above the engagement ring, not below, and its peak lines up with the point of the pear. Our latest order was the 3 carat set in sterling silver.

How the bypass shank holds the pear

A pear’s point is its thinnest and most exposed part. On this ring, the upper end of the shank caps that tip in metal, and the lower end curls under the rounded base. The stone is held at both ends with nothing on its sides, so it looks almost floating while its weak point is fully covered. Moissanite is Mohs 9.25 with no cleavage planes, and with its tip capped it is very well protected.

Why the band goes on top

	Most bridal sets	This set
Band position	Below the engagement ring	Above it, towards the fingertip
Band shape	Straight or gently curved	Peaked chevron that meets the pear tip
Effect	Two rings side by side	One continuous design

Because the pear points to the fingertip, the band sits on that side and follows the point. Worn this way the two rings read as a single piece. A straight band would leave a gap at the tip of the pear; the chevron fills it.

From the workshop

A set designed to be worn as one has one practical consequence: the two rings should always be sized and serviced together. If one is resized, the chevron’s peak may no longer meet the pear’s tip. Our latest customer chose the 3 carat set in sterling silver. In silver, the pavé on the chevron band and the tip cap on the ring are the parts that wear first, never the moissanite. Store the two rings in separate pouches — the stones on the band would otherwise scratch the polished bypass shank — and take both to the bench together once a year.

Before you order: a short checklist

Ask for the pear’s millimetres at your chosen carat and do a paper test.
Confirm on the CAD that the band’s peak meets the pear’s tip.
Size both rings together, worn as a pair.
Choose 14K gold for daily wear; silver for occasional wear or trying the design.
Store the rings separately and service them together.
