Your love deserves to be celebrated in full radiance. The Halo setting surrounds your center stone with a glowing embrace, amplifying its brilliance to reflect a life full of light.
Yes and no. The center stone is secured using standard methods like prongs or a bezel, which are very reliable. However, the surrounding pavé diamonds require more overall maintenance to ensure none of the small stones loosen over time.
Does halo setting make the center diamond look bigger?
Yes, the surrounding small diamonds create an optical illusion. Typically, a 1-carat center stone set with a halo will resemble a 1.5-carat or larger diamond. So the halo setting is the most effective way to maximize the diamond and sparkle.
Whats the difference between halo and hidden halo?
A halo is visible from the top view, surrounding the center stone with smaller diamonds. A hidden halo sits beneath the center stone (in the gallery) and is only visible from the side. A halo is more eye-catching, while a hidden halo suits a "minimalist-but-unique" style.
Will it sit flush with a wedding band?
It depends on the design. To sit flush with a straight wedding band, you generally need a high-set halo or a cathedral setting. If the halo sits low, it is better paired with a curved or contoured band that follows the shape of the ring.
Is halo ring hard to clean?
Yes. Dirt and debris can easily accumulate around the small diamonds. Regular cleaning is recommended to maintain its sparkle. For specific maintenance tips, please refer to our guide: "How to Clean a Diamond Ring."
