Illusion set double halo in 9ct white gold

Illusion set double halo in 9ct white gold.

This double halo engagement ring is a beauty, with its intricate arrangement of  illusion-set baguette and round diamonds in the centre, surrounded by two round diamond halos in a sea of sparkle and luxurious 9ct white gold. 

Illusion settings are often confused with cluster settings. Both can make a diamond appear as if it is a solid stone, but illusion sets are specifically made to give off that impression. Cluster settings may or may not give off the look of a larger stone. 

Choosing an illusion-set diamond centre over a single diamond gives the customer a price advantage. It’s much easier for jewellers to cut smaller diamonds with high clarity and colour than it is for them to cut larger stones. 

That’s one of the reasons why larger diamonds face such an increase in price even when going from a 1 carat diamond to a 2 carat diamond. Many small diamonds are usually less expensive than a single diamond of equal size. 

Not only are illusion-set diamonds an affordable option, they were popular in the Art Deco jewellery era of the 1920s and 1930s. The cropped rectangular shape of this double halo is indicative of an emerald cut diamond engagement ring. 

Geometric shapes like these were a favourite during this time. Art Deco engagement rings continue to be the most sought-after vintage engagement rings today. 

This double halo engagement ring is crafted in our 9ct white gold, which produces a pale white colour. Our white gold is unplated, meaning it does not require rhodium plating to retain its colour. Most jewellers insist rhodium is needed, but we find with high quality metal alloys, it does not. Additionally, we offer other metals for your convenience.
