Pear Cut Moissanite Stud Earrings: Size & Backing Guide

Pear-cut moissanite halo stud earring in a silver-tone setting

Pear-cut moissanite stud earrings combine a pointed teardrop outline with a fixed center-stone size and halo setting. The current Miles product lists a 5 × 7mm moissanite center stone, screw-back closure, 925 sterling silver, and two plated finish choices. This guide focuses on those verified decisions.

Public-figure lesson: use proportion and spacing

In Vogue's November 22, 2023 Jewelry Heist feature, Zoë Kravitz is described wearing tiny stacked ear studs and pairing a hoop with a line of studs. The narrow lesson is that spacing and the relative size of each shape can make an ear stack feel intentional. Vogue does not identify her jewelry as pear cut, halo set, moissanite, or any Miles product.

What does 5 × 7mm measure?

The 5 × 7mm specification belongs to the center stone. It is not the full outside dimension of the earring because the halo setting extends beyond that center. Draw a 5 × 7mm pear-shaped reference on paper to understand the core scale, then use the exact product image to account for the surrounding halo.

The pear outline has a rounded end and a pointed end, so orientation also affects the visible direction of the stud. The current product keeps that shape and size fixed rather than offering multiple stone sizes.

Screw-back closure

Screw back is the only closure listed for the current product. Confirm that this is the backing style you want before choosing a finish. This guide does not make a comfort, retention, or suitability guarantee; individual fit and preference vary.

Choose Silver or Gold

Shopify option Verified construction Visual direction
Silver 925 sterling silver, rhodium plated Cool silver-tone setting.
Gold 925 sterling silver, gold plated Warm gold-tone setting.

Moissanite remains the listed stone in both current finish options. This guide stays within the current Shopify material and variant fields.

How to place a pear shape in an ear stack

The pointed pear outline can act as the focal shape in a simple arrangement. If you use additional piercings, leave visible space around the halo and compare the scale of nearby studs or hoops. The goal is a clear hierarchy, not to imply that Zoë Kravitz wore this product or stone.

Buying checklist

  1. Confirm that a fixed 5 × 7mm pear-cut center stone suits the intended scale.
  2. Remember that the halo extends beyond the center-stone measurement.
  3. Confirm the screw-back closure.
  4. Choose Silver rhodium plating or Gold plating.
  5. Review the exact-product image before adding to cart.
