Choosing An Oval Double Halo Engagement Ring

Cut quality matters with ovals. A well-cut stone keeps the darker 'bow-tie' across the center faint. Shape works in your favor here as well: an oval diamond looks bigger than a round of the same carat weight, since it spreads its weight over a longer outline and usually shows more surface face-up. A double halo builds on that. The second row widens the outline again, giving a 1 carat center a much bolder presence. For all its scale, a double halo suits everyday wear. The pavé sits close to the center and is protected by the frame, and regular cleaning keeps it bright. When pairing a wedding band with an oval double halo engagement ring, a slim band balances the wider double halo, while a curved band can nest against it. Explore 7 oval double halo engagement rings, from $2,325, each one taking a 1, 1.5, 2 or 3 carat lab-grown center of E-F color and VS+ clarity, in yellow gold, white gold or platinum.
