Hidden Halo Engagement Rings

A hidden halo sets a thin ring of small stones beneath the centre stone, so the ring looks like a clean solitaire from above and flashes from the side. Choose moissanite or lab grown diamond in oval, round, radiant, pear, emerald, cushion and more, made to order in silver, gold or platinum.

How a Hidden Halo Works

The small stones sit on the head of the setting, just below the girdle of the centre stone. From directly above you see only the centre stone; turn your hand and a line of sparkle appears underneath. It keeps the clean look of a solitaire while adding light from every side angle. Our guide what is a hidden halo engagement ring? explains the pros and cons.

Moissanite or Lab Grown Diamond

This collection includes both. Our lab grown diamond hidden halo rings come with centres from 1 to 10 ct, described as E-F color and VVS clarity. Moissanite hidden halo rings give more colorful fire for a lower price. Compare the two in moissanite vs lab grown diamonds.

Choose Your Band

  • Plain or thin plain band: keeps the focus on the centre stone and the hidden sparkle.
  • Pavé or micro pavé band: continues the line of small stones for the most sparkle.
  • Shared prong band: shows more of each small stone for a lighter, airier look.

Shapes That Suit It Best

Elongated shapes show off a hidden halo especially well: oval is the most popular, followed by radiant, pear, marquise and elongated cushion. On emerald and Asscher cuts the halo adds brilliance under calm step facets, and on a round it keeps the solitaire look perfectly clean. Every ring is made to order in 925 sterling silver or 10K, 14K or 18K gold, with platinum on many lab grown designs.

Common Questions

Can you see a hidden halo from the top?

Not usually. From directly above the ring reads as a solitaire; the halo shows from the side and at angles.

Does a hidden halo make the stone look bigger?

Only slightly, through the extra sparkle. If you want the centre stone to look noticeably larger, choose a classic halo.

Will a wedding band sit flush?

Because the halo sits under the stone, many straight bands sit close. Check the side view; if the head sits low, a curved band may fit better.

Are these moissanite or diamond?

Both are here. Each listing states whether the centre stone is moissanite or lab grown diamond.
