Love it! It''s nice that the shank is plain platinum and not diamonds. It really makes the halo stand out and makes it unique! Beautiful!!

Love, LOVE, LOVE it!

Gotta work on those fancy photos!

Can''t believe my center stone is only .52 carat!

One more...

Damn Metro- That is some bling on your finger!!

My center stone is .52 RB/E/SI1. My original ering was a plain catherdral setting with 4-prongs. I wanted the halo look, but because center stone is less than a carat, I didn''t want to go overkill with adding diamonds to the shank.

So I talked to my jeweler and he said he could just take the head/prongs off my existing ering and design a halo basket and attach it onto my ring.

Not only did it cost me a fraction of redesign an entire ring - it''s sit flush with my existing wedding band! I''m a happy camper!

My halo is .28 ct of 1-pointer melee diamonds. My wedding band is .50 ct G/VS2 rounds.

My ring size is a 3.

My inspriation - Rowan''s beautiful ring! Her center stone is the same size as mine - so seeing her ring made me believe that I CAN have a halo!

 

[Miranda]

Wow!!! What a great ring surgery! I love the result. Your stone looks so much larger than .52. Your set is beautiful!!! BTW...love the avatar!

[jayreneepea]

That''s a beautiful ring. And an inspired retrofit. Make sure that set gets into Show Me the Ring thread. It''s a really cool way to update a wedding set. It''s great design, it pumps up a 1/2 ct., and it works with the channel set band. That update would also work very nicely for ''80s / ''90s yellow gold, too.

Holy moly, that''s just beautiful.

 

[jenniegirlm]

It''s simply beautiful. And it looks huuuge! Makes me want to put my .50 ct into a halo.... hmmmm.... Do you have "before" pics? I''d like to see the difference.

Great make-over! Never would have guessed the center stone was .5!

 

[robbie3982]

Wow! I love it! I especially love that you went for a square halo with the round stone. Perhaps I''ll go that route some time in the future...

 

[DiaDiva]

metro, your re-designed ring is gorgeous! Enjoy...

 

[kcoursolle]

Lovely re-set! It definitely looks much larger and very nice on your hand. Congratulations.
