Turning the ring so that the peak points down is also an option, especially in Signature V or Hover settings.
Another way to wear a pear cut ring is in an east-west (horizontal) setting. The pear will appear to wrap around the top of your finger, creating a bold and abstract look. Choose to wear your own pear cut engagement ring in the way that is most beautiful and comfortable to you.
