Beyond the Classic:
Halos that Dazzle and Wow
Traditionally, halos encircle the center stone with diamonds, a style rooted in vintage periods like the Victorian era, known for romantic, floral-inspired designs, and the Art Deco era, celebrated for bold, symmetrical settings that spotlight the center stone.
In the mid-20th century, halo rings surged again, with Hollywood glamour giving the classic circular halo a timeless appeal.
Today’s unique halos take these historical ideas further! Double halos bring a show-stopping effect by layering two rows of diamonds around the center stone, amplifying the glimmer.
Another exciting option is the half-halo, where stones wrap halfway around the center, creating an understated yet eye-catching asymmetry. Then there’s the hidden halo, a subtle sparkle tucked beneath the center stone, adding a surprise shimmer only you may notice.
These modern twists on classic halos add depth and character, making your ring a unique reflection of your style. Ready to explore your own dazzling halo? Let’s bring your vision to life at Diamonds Forever!
