Halo Engagement Rings
A halo engagement ring surrounds the centre stone with a border of smaller diamonds, adding perceived size and light without increasing the carat weight of the main stone. David Morris halo rings are handcrafted in the London workshop, with the centre stone set in a claw or bezel mount, chosen according to stone shape and size, and the halo pave set or channel set around it depending on the design. The collection includes round, oval, cushion and emerald cut centre stones, each set in platinum or 18ct white or yellow gold, with a double halo, using two rows of smaller diamonds, available on selected designs for a larger overall appearance. Round brilliant cut stones are the most common pairing for a halo ring, giving a symmetrical border of light, while oval and cushion cut stones elongate the finger and take a halo well due to their broader outline, and emerald cut stones read differently in a halo, with the border following straight lines rather than a curve. Halo engagement rings are made to order and sized during a consultation, either at a David Morris boutique or by appointment, with resizing available after the initial fitting and consultations able to cover matching wedding band options for a halo ring setting.
