So pretty!

We are often seduced by the round brilliant because of its sparkle and brilliance. Although a round diamond is a classic and beautiful cut known for its brilliance, you can still get that sparkle in other shapes, and the 

Oval is a prime example! We cover more on the sparkle in “Diamonds – The Best Part & The Art of Buying Diamonds Online Part 1 – Cut” to buy the most beautifully cut diamonds online. Be sure to check those out. 

For now, know that if a diamond is cut well, the light that enters will reflect through the top giving your diamond more sparkle! The sparkle will not exist in poorly cut diamonds because the entering light will not reflect. Regardless of shape, all diamonds require symmetry to shine. 

The Oval is similar to a round diamond regarding its characteristics, facets and overall look. So, if you want the fire and brilliance of a round-cut diamond but want a unique shape, the Oval might be perfect for you. 

If you’re not familiar with Oval Halo Engagement Rings, or a Halo in general, they are exactly how they sound. It’s like a diamond wearing a halo, just like an angel. How perfect! Sorry for being so cheesy! lol 

By styling your centre stone with a halo, you’ve essentially framed your diamond. We love how it accents your centre stone and gives your entire ring more sparkle and brilliance.

The advantage of choosing a halo setting is that it will accent your centre stone in a way that makes it appear larger. Let’s say you were looking at a 1.5 Carat Classic Oval

Solitaire and loved the size of the stone, but maybe it was over what you had wanted to spend.

What you can do is take a 0.75-1.00 Carat Center Stone and put that into a halo setting and now put that next to that solitaire.

The .75 will cost less, and the halo will make it appear the same as that 1.5 that might have been out of reach.

You are also giving your entire ring extra fire, sparkle and brilliance and who the heck wouldn’t want a little extra of that!

With that said, maybe that 1.5 isn’t quite as large as you had wanted; look what happens when you add a halo. Boom!
