Double Halo Engagement Rings - The Most Coveted Engagement Ring?

There is very little that one can do to improve the appearance of a beautiful, high quality diamond except of course… to add more diamonds! A halo setting brings extra sparkle, more opportunities for light play and a theatrical fire to any engagement ring. It also adds finger coverage creating an even more impressive statement.

But why stop there? Double halos have quickly become one of the most coveted engagement ring settings for brides to be. Light from the double rows of diamonds is reflected to the central stone, giving a brilliance that is sure to turn heads. A double halo setting is also a great way of adding drama to an engagement ring, creating the powerful illusion of a larger central diamond. These engagement rings create a visual impact like no other, doubling up on sparkling rainbows and striking scintillation.

A diamond engagement ring with this much dazzle doesn’t have to break the bank; in fact, a double halo setting is great for savvy shoppers who want a diamond ring with a big impact but are working with a more modest budget.

A double halo is a hugely flexible setting that can work around a variety of diamond shapes. We have selected some of our favourite examples from our designer collections, to show you that when it comes to diamonds, sometimes more really is more!

From their ‘Passion’ collection, Simon G’s Double Halo engagement ring uses a diamond adorned split shank to create space on the hand and give even more sparkle. The prong setting keeps the central diamond secure and stable on the finger, while the halos of round brilliant diamonds bring light and impact to this contemporary design. The soft corners of the cushion shape of the halo highlighted with a round brilliant diamond is the best of all worlds.

The kings and queens of couture, Verragio’s cushion double halo engagement ring uses cushion-style halos to embrace the central diamond. An 18k rose gold sleeve is nestled neatly within the shank, and given the couture look with intricate metal beading. A split shank supports all those diamonds, and adds a little twinkle of its own. A skilful use of two-tone metal in a timelessly elegant design.

One of our favourite double halo designs come from the masters of melee and halos, Simon G. This Passion double halo engagement ring highlights the feature diamond with the subtle blush or natural pink diamonds set in romantic rose gold, that sit perfectly against an outer row of dazzling white diamonds in 18k white gold. A unique twist on the classic halo, with feminine charm and an abundance of sparkle. A true masterpiece.

A double halo with a difference; in this Passion double halo, Simon G masterfully uses four round brilliant diamonds to mark each corner of the halos, giving their cushion shape a squared appearance without any sharp edges. The halos are set on an ornate scrolled ceiling and finished on a sparkling, split shank. A double halo engagement ring that is truly fit for royalty.
