Halo Rings (208)

What is a halo ring?

In a halo ring, small stones are set around the central stone to form a luminous surround. Unlike a classic solitaire, where the centre stone is highlighted on its own, the halo becomes an integral part of the design. It visually extends the outline of the stone and can make the centre appear larger without changing its actual carat weight.

The proportions of the halo also influence the overall look. A fine halo allows the central stone to remain dominant, while a more prominent surround adds greater volume to the composition. Some designs also feature a double halo, formed by two rows of stones around the centre.

Which centre stone shape should you choose for a halo ring?

The shape of the central stone largely determines the silhouette of the ring. A round stone gives the halo a balanced, regular design. An oval shape elongates the composition, while a pear-shaped stone creates a more pronounced asymmetrical line. A marquise shape enhances this elongated effect further with its two pointed ends.

Princess-cut or square stones give the halo a more geometric structure. The surround often follows the outline of the central stone, meaning that the same arrangement of smaller stones will not create the same effect around a round, oval or marquise-cut diamond. The choice of shape therefore influences both the character of the centre stone and the overall proportions of the ring.

Understanding the budget for a halo ring

The price of a halo ring depends in particular on the gold content, the type, weight and characteristics of the central stone, but also on the number of stones forming the surround, their setting and the design of the mount. One of the visual effects sought with a halo is to give the centre greater presence without necessarily choosing a heavier central stone.

Depending on the budget and the desired appearance, it is possible to play with the proportions of the central stone and its surround, as well as the choice of a natural diamond, synthetic diamond or coloured gemstone. To explore these criteria in more detail, our guide to choosing a halo ring can help you through the decision.

Create your halo ring with the Edenly Atelier

Many Edenly halo rings can be created using the Atelier, our 3D design tool. It allows you to build the piece step by step by choosing elements such as the central stone and its shape, followed by the setting, the gold colour and the stones forming the halo.

Natural or synthetic diamond, black diamond, sapphire, ruby, emerald or other coloured gemstones: the choice of the central stone can significantly change the appearance of the same halo setting. Round, oval, princess, marquise or pear shapes then allow you to further adjust the proportions and character of the ring.

Each Edenly ring comes with a certificate of authenticity and benefits from a 2-year guarantee. If the chosen size is not right, resizing is offered when requested within 30 days of receiving the ring.
