What Is a Halo Ring?<\/h2>\n

A halo engagement ring features a circle of small accent diamonds that\u00a0<\/span><\/span>wrap all the way around the center stone.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>This “halo” sits\u00a0<\/span><\/span>level with the main diamond<\/span>, creating a seamless,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>high-shine\u00a0<\/span><\/span>surface when viewed from above.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Those surrounding diamonds\u00a0<\/span><\/span>don\u2019t<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>just add extra sparkle. The whole point of a halo setting is\u00a0that they work together to make the center stone look noticeably larger and even more brilliant.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
