Frequently Asked Questions
What is a halo ring?
A halo ring features a center diamond encircled by smaller diamonds, creating a frame that amplifies brilliance and makes the center stone appear larger. It's one of the most popular engagement ring styles for its eye-catching sparkle.
Do halo rings make the center diamond look bigger?
Yes. The surrounding halo of smaller diamonds creates an optical illusion that enhances the center stone's size and brilliance. This makes halo rings an excellent choice for maximizing visual impact.
What diamond shapes work best with halo settings?
Halo settings complement nearly any diamond shape, including round, oval, cushion, emerald, and pear cuts. James Allen offers halo engagement rings designed specifically for each shape to enhance its natural beauty.
Can I customize a halo ring?
Absolutely. James Allen offers customization options, including metal choice, diamond quality, and band style. You can create a halo ring that reflects your personal style and preferences.
What's the difference between a single halo and double halo?
A single halo features one row of diamonds surrounding the center stone, while a double halo includes two concentric rows for extra sparkle and dimension. Double halos create a bolder, more dramatic look.
