What is a Halo Setting?

Halo settings are a style of a diamond engagement ring with a center diamond surrounded by a circle of accent stones. These accent stones are usually pavé diamonds and side stones. Halo settings can follow the same or different shape as the center diamond. For example, a round brilliant-cut diamond can have a cushion shaped halo. 

A halo engagement ring can be fancy and the center of attention everywhere you go or elegant and classic. A halo ring setting is a great addition to your love story for all occasions as you embark on the journey of marriage.

Halo Diamond Engagement Ring FAQs

What should I know before buying a halo diamond engagement ring?

The first – and most important – thing to consider is the wearer’s style and preference. Once you consider what the wearer likes, the cut performance and cut shape are the most important. A halo setting ring has a circle of diamonds around a center stone, giving it extra sparkle and brilliance. The central diamond is the most important element and choosing the right one depends on the overall engagement ring style and budget you want.

Does a halo setting make a diamond look bigger?

Halo settings can make a diamond look bigger because there is a cluster of smaller gemstones around the center diamond. It gives a larger carat weight and adds a lot more sparkle to the ring compared to a solitaire setting engagement ring.

Are halo engagement rings popular?

Halo engagement rings are popular because they have a lot more sparkle than a traditional solitaire engagement ring. Many brides love the added glitter and brilliance on their fingers because it looks beautiful to wear. Many brides also love halo settings because the diamond looks a lot bigger with a circle of smaller gemstones around it – especially when the smaller stones are melee diamonds, which are cut to the same precision as larger Brian Gavin Signature diamonds.

What is a double halo ring?

A double halo engagement ring features two rings of smaller gemstones around a center diamond. It quite literally looks like the diamond at the top has two halos.

How to choose the center diamond for halo setting?

It’s important to choose a center diamond that fits the halo setting. One common problem with halo rings is that the center stone doesn’t fit the halo setting properly because most halo settings are manufactured in bulk. The custom jewelry division of Brian Gavin Diamonds makes each ring separately, so the halo setting will be specially designed to fit the center stone you choose.

Choosing the diamond color for halo setting ring

There are lots of colorful diamond options for your halo setting ring. A standard white diamond is a favorite for many brides, but diamonds also come in other colors, such as blue, pink, red, and yellow. Our rings always look amazing, regardless of the color of the center diamond. Brian Gavin Signature diamonds have high precision cutting standards with exceptional light performance. The Brian Gavin Signature round hearts and arrows diamond is a great center stone to choose regardless of color because the high degree of optical precision means it sparkles like crazy under any lighting.

What metal should I choose for a halo diamond ring?

We offer 14k and 18k halo diamond rings in rose gold, white gold, or yellow gold. If you have more budget, you can also opt for a platinum band. The platinum band is a popular choice for brides with sensitivities to certain metals. It also has a heavier feel and is easier to maintain over time. If you enjoy wearing your halo engagement ring every day and participate in rigorous activities, a platinum band could be the choice for you. Choose the metal that best suits your bride’s style and preference.

How many carats should the center stone of a halo engagement ring be?

It all depends on whether you’re a fan of big or small diamonds. Some people enjoy a large center diamond, while others prefer a daintier style. Refer to the diamond carat weight size chart for reference on how a diamond looks on your finger.

Choosing the right shape for the center stone of halo settings

There are many diamond shapes you can choose from for a halo setting diamond engagement ring. Although a brilliant round cut diamond is a common and popular choice for the center stone, it’s not your only option. You also have such a princess cut, pear cut, emerald cut, oval cut, and classic round cut. It depends on the preference of your bride. It’s also important to look at the cut quality of the diamond, which considers the polish, symmetry, and proportions of the center diamond to find a style that she loves.

What are the 4 Cs of diamonds?

Our diamonds are graded extensively on the GIA diamond grading system. We actually believe in 4Cs + 1 – referring to a diamond’s Clarity, Color, Carat weight, and 2 types of Cut – diamond cut shape and diamond cut performance. We measure each diamond carefully against each of these criteria to produce the most gorgeous and brilliant rings for each bride that will last a lifetime.
