One style that is very popular nowadays is the “halo” style. Â The halo style is basically when you have a diamond pave-set frame around the edge of the face of the diamond set in the engagement ring. Â This is popular for a number of reasons. Â Firstly, all pave styles in general are very popular now and have been for a number of years now. Â But additionally, halo styles are popular because they give the diamond the appearance of being larger than it actually is.
James Allen offers several different “halo” style engagement rings. Â Many are a part of their designer “Meno MicroPave Collection.” Â But these rings are expensive, due to their brand name. Â But JA offers many similar styles in their regular engagement ring selection that are equally as beautiful.
One such example of a beautiful halo-style engagement ring in their regular ring inventory is their 18k White Gold Split Shank Pave Halo Diamond Engagement Ring.
What I like about this setting is that the split shank widens the footprint of the ring on the finger, yet it’s not big and bulky. Â So this ring will look great on fingers of all sizes, yet doesn’t look overly heavy with gold or platinum.
