A halo engagement ring surrounds the center stone with one or more rows of smaller diamonds. The halo can follow the outline of the center diamond or use a contrasting shape, allowing the design to add sparkle, define the silhouette, and change the ring’s overall proportions.
Round diamond halo
A round halo creates a balanced, symmetrical frame and can make a round center diamond appear more prominent.
Pear-shaped diamond halo
This archived Custom by Z design uses a single row of round diamonds to follow the outline of a pear-shaped center. Careful spacing around the point and rounded end helps the halo look even.
Double halo with graduated diamonds
Using different diamond sizes in two halo rows can create more dimension and a distinctive transition from the center stone to the outer edge.
Emerald-cut diamond halo
A halo of round diamonds softens the straight lines and clipped corners of an emerald-cut center while preserving its elongated outline.
Cushion-cut diamond halo
A cushion halo follows the softly squared outline of a cushion-cut center and can be adjusted from gently rounded to more structured corners.
Details to consider
- Single or double halo
- Matching or contrasting halo shape
- Diamond size, spacing, and setting style
- White, yellow, rose gold, or platinum
- How the engagement ring will fit beside a wedding band
