Two or Three Halos of Diamonds Encircling Your Center Gem? Why Not!

8 Most Brilliant Multi-Halo Engagement Rings

First of all, a halo is a grouping of smaller stones, which surrounds a larger one. I like to think of a halo as an aura—thus, a “halo” of sparkling light around the sparkling stone in the center. Popular in engagement rings since the 1920s, halos have had a huge resurgence, with many modern brides asking for halo betrothal rings. One obvious reason is that, when the halo of smaller gems surrounding the center larger stone is the same gem color as the focal-point gem--most in bridal being colorless or white diamonds--that stone appears to look even bigger than its actual carat size.

A big, big trend in halo engagement rings is the double- and the triple-halo, whereby two or more "circles" of stones add even more dazzle to one's already brilliant diamond. I’ve seen some incredibly beautiful designs--many more coming out this year than ever before--and, here, I’m sharing with you, some of the best. 

Triple Halo High . . .

The setting for the center stone of this Danhov ring is available for a ring with a .77-carat up to a 1.25-carat diamond. Its setting can be custom-made to fit any shape and size of center stone, e.g., oval, cushion, marquise, etc. In addition to whatever center you choose, thre are approximately 130 stones (about 1.38 tcw.) with F-G color, and VS1 clarity (so both color and clarity are high). Depending on factors such as your specific ring size and the precious metal you choose, the range of MSRP is: $10,940 for platinum; $8,620 for 18K gold; or $7.920 for 14k gold.

Double-Circling the Cushion Cut . . .

From the Precision Set "Extraordinary Collection," this 18K white gold engagement ring with a split shank and double-cushion diamond halo is available in platinum, too. Diamond weight of the ring without the center stone is 1.05-carats.

Marquise Shape Ring, Oval Cut Center . . .

From the "Vintage" line of the Sylvie Collection, this ring, available in platinum or 18K white gold, features a one-carat round brilliant diamond in a bezel setting. It's accented with additional diamonds (1.01 total carat weight) as well as milgrained details on the shank. This ring has great customizable options, too (something I really like, especially for your all-important wedding ring): First, It comes in platinum or 14K or 18K white, yellow, or rose gold, And second, this mounting can accommodate ten different diamond shapes: rounds (as you see here), plus just about all the fancy cuts, such as cushions, squares, marquises, pears, etc.

Paves and Full Cuts Encircle . . .

In platinum, here's the "Charlotte" ring from Erica Courtney. In back of this ring, pictured here, is a matching wedding band, specially made to fit flush against the "Charlotte." The pave engagement ring features a one-carat round center diamond center stone and 1.11 tcw. of surrounding diamonds. Also available in 18K yellow, white, or rose gold.

Tapered Baguettes, Too . . .

First a halo of baguettes, and next a halo of rounds--this Simon G. Jewelry engagement ringwith a marquise-cut diamond.center stone is one of my personal favorites!

White Topaz Is Central . . .

Katie Decker Jewelry's 18K yellow gold engagement ring is from the designer's "Venetian Collection." It has great originality, featuring an oval-cut white topaz center stone, plus colorless diamonds accenting.

How regal-looking is this platinum engagement ring with its diamonds round the shank and a double-halo around the round center diamond? It's from Tacori. 

This unusual design in 18K white and rose gold, is by diamond cutting pioneer, Doron Isaak, who's originated several innovative, patented diamond cuts. Love this open-work double-halo! For information on this and other designs, contact Doron Isaak on Facebook.
