A halo ring setting encircles a center diamond with smaller accent diamonds. A halo setting adds dimension and unique styling and can make the center diamond appear larger and more vibrant.
All diamond cuts work well with halo settings and can add a variety of styling from vintage to modern. Some halo styles create a beautiful floral look. A double halo setting features two rows of diamonds. In a hidden halo setting, the row of diamonds is under the center diamond, resulting in a lifted effect and a unique side view.
A “halo” effect is an optical phenomenon that creates a circle or arcs of light (often around the moon or sun). A halo ring setting evokes this display in sparkling diamond light.
