Hidden Halo Engagement Rings

A hidden halo places a row of small accent stones beneath the center stone rather than around it from the top. The detail is mainly visible from the side, adding sparkle while keeping the top view focused on the center stone.

A traditional halo surrounds the center stone and is clearly visible from above, while a hidden halo sits beneath the stone and is primarily seen from the side. If you prefer a halo that frames the center stone from the top, explore our Halo Engagement Rings.

Not in the same way as a traditional halo. Because the accent stones sit beneath the center stone, a hidden halo usually does not significantly increase its outline from the top view. Instead, it adds sparkle, depth, and visual interest from the side.

A double hidden halo typically uses two rows or levels of accent stones beneath the center stone, depending on the design. It creates a more noticeable side profile and additional sparkle while still keeping the center stone visually dominant from above.
