Halo Engagement Rings: Timeless Elegance with Extra Sparkle

When it comes to diamonds engagement rings, there’s one style that continues to enchant couples across generations—halo engagement rings. Known for their radiant sparkle and vintage-inspired charm, these rings offer a timeless look with modern flair. Whether you’re shopping in Leigh-On-Sea, Essex, or exploring fine jewellery in Hatton Garden, London, Jewellery Design Centre is your trusted destination for halo engagement rings that deliver elegance, individuality, and exceptional value.

In this guide, we’ll explore the appeal of halo engagement rings, the latest design trends, and how you can find the perfect piece to mark your forever love.

 

 

What Is a Halo Engagement Ring?

 

A halo engagement ring features a central stone—usually a diamond—encircled by a "halo" of smaller accent stones. This design enhances the size and brilliance of the centre stone, giving it a dazzling and luxurious appearance. At Jewellery Design Centre, we offer a range of halo styles that suit every taste—from classic round cuts to glamorous pear or cushion shapes.

 

Why Halo Engagement Rings Are Timeless

 

The halo setting isn’t just beautiful—it’s smart. The halo of smaller diamonds reflects light back into the centre stone, making it appear larger and brighter. This timeless design dates back to the Art Deco era but remains a favourite among modern brides. Its elegance lies in its ability to blend classic sophistication with bold sparkle.

 

Our clients at both our Essex and Hatton Garden showrooms often choose halo rings for their eye-catching look and symbolic depth: the central diamond represents eternal love, while the halo suggests protection and eternity.

 

Popular Halo Ring Styles at Jewellery Design Centre

 

From minimalist to statement-making, our curated selection of halo engagement rings includes something for every couple:

 

1. Classic Round Halo

Perfect for those who love tradition. A round diamond surrounded by smaller stones gives the illusion of a much larger centre stone.

 

2. Oval Halo Rings

Elegant and elongating, oval halo rings create a flattering silhouette on the hand.

 

3. Cushion-Cut Halo

A soft, vintage-inspired option for those who love a romantic look.

 

4. Double Halo Designs

Double the sparkle with two halos surrounding the centre stone—a dramatic choice for those who want to stand out.

 

Customising Your Halo Engagement Ring

 

Looking for something unique? At Jewellery Design Centre, we offer custom design services so you can personalise your halo ring. Choose your preferred metal—white gold, rose gold, platinum—or select a black diamond engagement ring for a bold, non-traditional twist. Our expert jewellers can also adjust the setting, band style, and accent stones to reflect your story.

Whether you're visiting our Hatton Garden studio or stopping by our Leigh-on-Sea location, our team provides personal consultations to guide you through the design process.

 

Black Diamond Engagement Rings with a Halo Twist

 

Want to break from the norm? Try a black diamond engagement ring set in a halo design. The contrast of a dark centre stone surrounded by white diamonds creates a striking visual impact that’s both edgy and sophisticated. It’s perfect for couples seeking a ring that reflects personality and confidence.

These rings are becoming increasingly popular with modern brides and grooms who value individuality and alternative beauty.

 

Engagement and Wedding Rings: Matching with Your Halo Ring

 

At Jewellery Design Centre, we offer beautifully coordinated engagement and wedding rings. Our halo rings can be paired with diamond-set wedding bands or minimalist metal bands for a seamless bridal set.

Whether you choose a curved band to nestle against the halo or a straight-edged ring for contrast, we’ll help you find the perfect match that enhances your halo without overpowering it.

 

Affordable Elegance: Halo Engagement Rings for Every Budget

 

A common misconception is that halo rings are expensive. The truth? At Jewellery Design Centre, we offer engagement rings cheap in price but rich in craftsmanship and design. Because the halo amplifies the size and sparkle of the centre stone, you can choose a smaller diamond without sacrificing impact—making it a budget-friendly yet luxurious choice.

With in-house design and transparent pricing, we make sure every customer walks away with a ring they love, at a price they feel good about.
