Description
This beautiful engagement ring features a round brilliant cut diamond prong set in the center of a shared prong set diamond halo, with blue sapphires prong set around the sides, and bright cut set diamond accents on the shank.

He worked with our team through the online portal we set up to manage his project, which allowed him to view the sketches and models we developed of his design. He provided feedback and clarifications in this way, and we integrated his input to perfect our models.
Center Setting
In the center of this ring, a 2.50 carat round brilliant cut diamond is held in place by four white gold prongs. These prongs rise up gracefully from below, crossing over each other on the way and mirroring the elegant lines of the diamond. This subtle cross-over detail can be seen on both ring fronts, and it adds a great deal to the overall flow of the piece.
Diamond and Sapphire Halo
Surrounding the large diamond in the center is a halo of small, round shared prong set diamonds. These follow the contours of the center stone precisely, helping to accentuate its perfect shape. The light reflected back up onto the center from the halo also helps to increase the brilliance of the larger stone, while adding a classical touch to the design as well. Halo Engagement Rings
The sides of the halo are covered by a ring of small, round blue sapphires that are also shared prong set. These introduce a wonderful contrast to the piece, and they’re only slightly visible when the ring is viewed from the top down, creating a delicate frame around the main halo. The client’s inspiration piece also featured a large blue sapphire in the center position, and although he decided to go with a diamond there instead, he still kept the sapphire accents.

Diamond Accents and Band Design
Starting at about the half-way point on each side, the band holds a line of round bright cut set diamonds. Smaller diamonds are also bright cut set up each strand of the shank after it splits close to the center setting, and these facilitate a smooth transition to the halo and larger diamond at the top.
