Three natural pear cut diamonds, 0.22 carats in total, around seven points each. The colour is an olive gold — a warm yellow carrying a distinct olive-green cast, deeper and cooler than a honey or a canary. It is an unusual tone in small natural goods and reads as considered rather than as a diamond that fell short of white.
These are classic pears — properly elongated, with a good length-to-width and a clean point. They graduate in size from largest to smallest, which is a useful thing to find already sorted: a graduated run of one pointed shape is the basis of half the designs a small parcel of pears is bought for.
Clarity is VS across all three, so inclusions need magnification and nothing reaches the naked eye. At seven points each these are small — accent scale rather than centre-stone scale — and the disclosure below is honest about that.
Olive gold, three classic pears, already graduated. The shape does the work at this size.
What To Make With Them
Three graduated pears in one unusual colour support designs a mixed parcel cannot.
Signet ring, single stone
The largest pear flush-set into the face of a heavy gold signet, point running along the finger or set at an angle. A pointed stone in a signet is far less common than a round or cushion, and olive gold against yellow metal reads as a deliberate, quietly unusual choice.
Graduated three-pear ring
All three in a line across a band, points aligned, largest at the centre or running to one side. They are already sorted by size, which is exactly what this design needs — and repeating one directional shape is what makes it read as designed.
Pear pendant
The natural use for a pear — it hangs correctly and points down the chain. Bezel or rub-over set on something fine, in a tone that suits daily wear and never looks overdressed.
Leaf and vine work
An olive-green cast in a pointed stone is close to ideal for botanical designs — leaves, vines, laurel. It is the one colour that reads as foliage rather than as a gemstone pretending to be one, and small pears are the correct shape for it.
Accent stones to a centre
Two pears flanking a larger centre stone, points outward. At seven points they sit as accents without competing, and the olive tone gives a warm contrast to a white or canary centre.
Minimal bezel solitaire
One stone rub-over set on a fine band, point protected by the bezel wall. At seven points it sits very low and close to the finger — the definition of quiet, everyday minimal work.
On metal, an olive cast behaves differently from a plain warm yellow. Yellow gold pushes these warmer and mutes the green; if the olive note is what you want to show, green gold, blackened silver or oxidised finishes hold it far better. Rose gold sits between the two. White gold and platinum are more workable here than on a brown or deep yellow stone, because a cool olive does not fight cool metal the way a warm tone does. Brushed and satin finishes suit the whole parcel better than mirror polish.

Natural, And Untreated
Two Separate Guarantees
These are natural mined diamonds, not laboratory grown. Not CVD, not HPHT grown, not synthetic, not simulants. All three came out of the ground.
No treatment of any kind has been applied. Not irradiated, not HPHT colour treated, not coated, not painted, not laser drilled, not fracture filled, not heated, not enhanced in any other way. The colour in all three stones is their own.
Our guarantee on both points: if any stone in this parcel is shown by a recognised gemmological laboratory to be laboratory grown, or to have been treated in any way, return the complete parcel within 30 days of delivery for a full refund including your testing costs. We will honour that without argument.
Worth knowing, and this matters more on an olive cast than on a plain yellow: natural green colour in diamond comes from radiation exposure while the stone sat in the ground, and laboratory irradiation produces colour by the same mechanism. Because the cause is the same, laboratories frequently return colour origin as \"undetermined\" on green and greenish material. An olive gold is not as difficult a case as a pure green, but it is harder than a straight yellow.
What that means for the guarantee above: it stands and we will honour it. But if you are considering paying for testing, ask us first — on a green cast a report may come back without a definite answer on origin, in which case you will have paid for a document that does not settle the question. We will talk it through with you honestly before you spend anything.

Full Disclosure
These are small stones. At seven points each they are accent scale — the smallest goods we list — and considerably smaller in the hand than a close-up photograph suggests. Please look at the tweezer and box shots for a true sense of size before offerding. This is the most common misunderstanding on small parcels and it is entirely avoidable.
This is a parcel of three stones and 0.22 carats is the total. Please do not read that as the weight of a single diamond.
The three are graduated, not matched. They differ in size deliberately — largest to smallest — and depth of colour varies a little between them. For a graduated line or a spray that is the point; for a matched pair of drops it is not, and you would only get one convincing pair out of three stones at best.
\"Olive gold\" is our plain description, not a laboratory grade. Our colour and clarity assessments are our own, made in Bangkok under standard grading conditions. A laboratory would grade each stone individually and may return different results, and on a green cast may not settle colour origin at all.
All three have points, and points are where small stones take damage. We recommend V-tip or protective bezel settings and telling your setter before any work begins. No cut, polish or symmetry grades are offered, and individual measurements are not published — if you need millimetre dimensions, ask and we will measure all three before you offer.
Every photograph and the video show the actual stones under natural light without colour correction. The olive cast reads greener under cool daylight and warmer, more golden, under incandescent light.
