There are many problems in setting this expensive Pear-Shaped Emerald. I will go by numbers and give my reasons. As a Diamond Setter for only 65 years, I've come across many techniques that this particular ring is lacking.
----------------------------------------------
1) There are 'no means of protection' in guarding the point of the stone from being further damaged. Already I can see a faint 'rounding' at the Emerald point. This 'absence of protection' is an expensive error in the design.
2) The wearer will have a tough time preventing further breakage from taking place.
3) The point of the Pear Shape will cut into the skin of the finger.
4) To protect further catastrophic breakage to occur, there must be a "V" shaped claw at
the point.
5) The '4 claws' are too short, thus having no means to protect the stone from further damage.
6) The '4 claws' have not been 'rounded' at the tip, thus leaving sharp edges, why?
7) All claw tips must be 'rounded & smoothed' and not be left in the 'condition' as being seen here.
8) If I was the retailer or fashion conscience wholesaler, I would never let my client take this ring out of my office, or store. There would be instant 'negative feedback' from the new client.
9) The 4 claws were not trimmed or completed in an orderly fashion. There are extra slivers of metal on 3 of those 'mediocre' looking claws.

These comments are just my own personal thoughts when I saw this photograph. I am very sure you have learned much from this tutorial essay.
