Halo Engagement Rings
What are halo engagement rings?
Halo engagement rings are a popular and timeless choice for those seeking a touch of luxury and brilliance in their engagement ring. These rings feature a central gemstone, typically a diamond, encircled by a halo of smaller diamonds or other precious gemstones. The halo enhances the overall appearance of the ring, making the centre stone appear larger and more radiant. This design not only adds to the ring's glamour but also increases its sparkle and visual impact. Halo engagement rings are available in various styles and can be customised to suit individual preferences, making them a versatile and enduring symbol of love and commitment.
What is the history of halo engagement rings?
The history of halo engagement rings dates back to the early 18th century when the concept of "cluster rings" emerged. These rings featured a central diamond surrounded by smaller gemstones, creating a dazzling and radiant effect. However, it wasn't until the 1920s, during the Art Deco era, that the halo design as we know it today gained popularity. Art Deco jewellery embraced geometric shapes and intricate patterns, and the halo setting fit perfectly into this aesthetic. The style experienced a resurgence in the late 20th century and has remained a beloved choice for engagement rings, admired for its timeless elegance and ability to enhance the brilliance of the centre diamond.
How much bigger does a halo make an engagement ring look?
A halo setting can significantly enhance the appearance of an engagement ring, making it appear notably larger. By encircling the centre diamond or gemstone with a ring of smaller accent stones, the halo creates an optical illusion of increased size and sparkle. Typically, halos add approximately 0.10 to 0.35 carats' worth of extra brilliance, depending on the size of the halo and its stones. This added dimension not only amplifies the visual impact but also enhances the overall elegance and vintage charm of the ring. In essence, a halo makes your ring look more substantial and breathtaking without the need for a larger, more expensive centre stone.
