Okay, I love halo's.  I never thought I'd change my engagement ring in any way due to sentimental value.  However, Tuesday I saw a woman with a princess cut engagement ring halo'd and it was lovely. 

So...does anyone have any pictures of this? 

I think I could convince my DH to change my setting if I reused what he originally gave me when it comes to the stones, which are princess cuts. 

Thanks in advance...you all come up with amazing ideas, and I'm open to suggestions.

And here are some threads on princess cut halo rings:

From 2005

E-ring and wedding band

A good variety of pictures

A round halo with a princess center

Another one

A recent thread

One with a beautiful Tacori


It sounds like you have multiple princess stones that you'd like to work with. I have seen a princess halo center stone with princess side stones, so a mixture of a halo and a three stone ring. It was really pretty, but I don't have a picture.

Another picture I found somewhere. I believe they bought a ring with a cluster of center stones and had it reset with one princess cut stone.

These are excellent pics, I really like the look.









Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be...

I really love this one with the beveled corners. It softens the look up a bit and the halo is quite delicate IMO.

 Hey Italiahaircolor, just wanted to stop by to say I had my 1.8 ish round diamond set into this mount (minus the surprise diamonds), and the cushion shape halo..is DIVINE! Gorgeous, GORGEOUS ring, can't say enough about how stunning it is!  I think the princess stone would look great in this setting too! It's SPECTACULAR and drool worthy! The undergallery is stunning as well! This would be my biased choice!

Italia, I can't wait to see what you choose!

Beau, did you start a SMTR thread? I can't see the video for some reason, so I can't see what ring you chose but would love to see your reset!

No steph..I am choosing not to take an active part in this  community anymore..just popped in once in awhile to get ideas for the reset, and now it's all done (YEAH)! The most amazing ring..my DREAM RING actually. I'm not going to share pics at this time. I may (down the road) post a "thumbs up" thread for the vendor who created my masterpiece..so that others who live nearby, can perhaps use this talented designer! Good luck with the design process Italia..it's so much fun creating a ring from scratch!

I have a princess cut stone as well and I've thought about a halo setting so I can't wait to see how your new setting looks - I'd really like to see how it looks from the side because I haven't seen any princess halos where I like the side view
