What is a Hidden Halo Engagement Ring?

What is the difference between a Halo and Hidden Halo and Diamond Detailing?

A hidden halo engagement ring is a type of ring design that features smaller diamonds or gemstones set into the basket of the ring where they generally can’t be viewed from above.

The hidden halo design is a modern twist on the traditional halo ring. A traditional halo ring is typically a centre stone that is surrounded by a ring of smaller diamonds. This halo of diamonds can be viewed from above on the finger.

Diamond detailing is similar to a hidden halo but where a hidden halo of diamonds goes all the way around a ring, diamond detailing is still hidden from the top view but could be a single stone or diamonds on the claws or bridge.

Hidden Halo Base

This hidden halo circles the base of the ring joining the band. It is a very stylised, minimal and sophisticated design. Usually custom designed for a solitaire ring with no side diamonds so that the hidden halo really is a secret feature.
