In search of the perfect halo ring<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The halo ring stands apart from so many alternative diamond engagement rings. For many reasons, the single halo<\/a> and double halo setting<\/a> provide a unique opportunity to tailor a ring to your exact tastes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Halo rings first appeared in the 1920’s. For this reason, many jewellers feature this style within vintage ring designs<\/a> inspired by antique jewellery styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But first, what is a halo ring?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Halo rings feature a frame of diamonds around a central gemstone. Halo styles enhance the size of a setting. But other styles provide a secret and subtle effect, including hidden halo engagement rings<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The option to add a precious or semi-precious gemstone gives buyers a huge choice when it comes to the cost of their engagement ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Variations range from all-diamond halo rings in both round and fancy shapes, to double halo engagement rings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How much is a halo ring?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The cost of a halo ring depends on the size and materials selected. Some buyers choose high-quality diamonds. In contrast, other buyers opt for diamond alternatives such as Moissanite. Or, even a black diamond at the centre<\/a> for added contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For your precious metal, we suggest either Platinum or 18 carat Gold. Both options give greater durability\u2014more suited to diamond settings<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expect to pay from \u00a31500 for a decent quality halo ring made from 950 Platinum set with natural diamonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wedding-ring-friendly halo styles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you buy a halo ring design, we recommend wedding-ring-friendly<\/a> designs. Some jewellers refer to this as Wedfit. Some halo engagement rings feature a raised setting suitable for a straight wedding ring. Other styles demand a specially shaped band<\/a> to fit around the halo. Feel welcome to contact us for style suggestions and wedding-ring-friendly ring designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the following video, we show the specially fitted wedding ring made at the same time as the halo ring itself. (Approx. 25 seconds into video) <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
