Halo Diamond Engagement Rings
Halo engagement rings have captivated brides for centuries, offering a fusion of lasting elegance and modern glamour. The hallmark of a diamond halo ring is the frame of smaller diamonds or gemstones forming a ‘halo’ around the central stone, which amplifies the sparkle and visual impact of the central gem. This design not only enhances the brilliance of the center diamond but also creates an illusion of a larger diamond, making it an attractive option for those seeking to maximize their spending plan.
With many exciting variations to choose from—such as Double Halos and Hidden Halos—finding the perfect piece of jewelry can be a delightful journey. Many couples enjoy customizing their engagement ring designs, blending style, quality, and craftsmanship to forge a ring that beautifully tells their unique love story.

Understanding the Halo Setting
A halo engagement ring features a center stone surrounded by smaller diamonds or gemstones, creating a ‘halo’ effect. This setting enhances the center stone's brilliance and makes it appear larger than its actual size, a feature that has driven its enduring popularity.
The Allure of the Halo Design
The halo setting goes beyond looking beautiful; it also maximizes the visual appeal of your center stone. The surrounding smaller diamonds effectively capture and reflect light, thereby enhancing its brilliance. This setting is perfect for diamonds with more modest carat weights, as the halo can make them appear significantly bigger.
Variations in Halo Designs
The Classic Halo with a single row of diamonds around the center stone is timeless, but there are so many exciting variations to explore. Double Halos have an additional row of smaller diamonds, enhancing the brilliance and making the center stone appear even more stunning. Hidden Halos, situated beneath the main stone, offer a subtle yet striking enhancement to the ring’s overall sparkle. These options allow you to customize the halo design to perfectly align with your personal style and the statement you wish to convey.
Choosing the Perfect Center Stone for a Halo Ring
Choosing the perfect center stone is a key part in the design process of a halo engagement ring. The halo elegantly highlights its brilliance, so choosing a diamond cut that complements the setting enhances the overall look.
Popular Diamond Shapes for Halo Rings
Round brilliant cuts are the most popular choice for halo engagement rings thanks to their stunning sparkle. Other shapes such as Cushion, Oval, and Emerald cuts are also wonderful options, each bringing its own unique charm. The halo beautifully complements each shape, so you can select one that best reflects your personal style and the statement you want your ring to convey.
Considering Gemstone Alternatives
Sapphires, with their durability and array of colors, add a unique touch to halo rings, while rubies convey passion with their red hues. Emeralds, known for their lush green color, offer a vibrant option but require a bit more care. Incorporating these stones can create bespoke designs that hold personal significance.
Customizing Your Halo Engagement Ring
Customization allows you to create a halo engagement ring that is truly one-of-a-kind, reflecting your individual style and love story.
Tailoring the Halo Design
Customizing the halo design can include choosing from classic single-row halos, intricate double halos, or subtle hidden halos. You can also select the metal type–be it white gold or yellow gold–to resonate with your taste.
Ethical Considerations
When you choose a halo diamond ring from Mark Broumand, you are not only selecting a dazzling piece of jewelry; you are choosing a ring that embodies ethical values. With our commitment to ethical practices, your ring will be a source of pride that reflects your love and respect for the earth.
