Choosing A Princess Cut Double Halo Engagement Ring

A princess cut is durable when its four corners are protected. Those corners are the most exposed points of the stone, so they should always be held by prongs or a frame. Around that center, a double halo adds a second row of pavé, which widens the outline again and gives a 1 carat center a much bolder presence. For all its sparkle, a double halo suits everyday wear. The pavé sits close to the center and is protected by the frame; simply clean it regularly to keep it bright. This edit features 7 princess cut double halo engagement rings from $2,325. Each holds a 1, 1.5, 2 or 3 carat lab-grown center, E-F color and VS+ clarity, crafted in yellow gold, white gold or platinum. As a wedding band to go with a princess cut double halo engagement ring, a slim band balances the wider double halo, and a curved band can nest against it. Whichever you choose, wear the two together before deciding, so you can see how the band sits beside the halo.
