Halo engagement rings feature a central stone that is surrounded by smaller diamonds that enhance its sparkle and brilliance. Halo settings are often found in diamond engagement rings; however, they are also used for all kinds of gemstone rings. No matter the stone, a halo engagement ring is an excellent choice to amplify the sparkle and essence of the centre stone for a truly dazzling effect. If you’re looking for a show-stopping engagement ring, a halo setting is for you!
The halo setting originated in the 1920s during the Art Deco movement, which had an emphasis on symmetry and geometric patterns. The halo rose in popularity during the Hollywood Glamour era (1930s-1940s) and our rings today are reminiscent of this period. In its current incarnation, Ritani was one of the first jewellers to create a look that highlighted the centre stone, making it look larger – rather than resembling a flower-like vintage piece from the past. This style is still highly popular today.

We especially love this style in a halo setting because the gorgeous shape is accentuated.
