The diamond you bought looks like a real beauty. The halo ring would be gorgeous. Do you know what style ring she likes?

You could get a halo setting like this one from Beverley K. It visually ''extends'' the stone. Would she like that?

what a beauty!

Hey all. I went with the .50 stone I posted above. Josh said the stones were both eye clean and looked like twins.


Now I need a setting to make it look bigger haaha ideas???

yes I would try the Halo settings like suggested by NeverendingUpgrade. I love vintage inspired looks and I wanted to make my stone larger..so this was the best of both worlds. It makes a HUGE diff. If your GF likes the look, I would go that way

Thank you all for all this great advice. This site and the people on it have been a godsend.. I just received the James Allen stone via FedEx. It looks just amazing. Comes in a nice box also.

I will run that style by her later tonight and see what she says.

Cool! Here is the Beverley K and other websites to see more haloes:

www.beverleyk.com Click on Collections, then Beverley K Collection, then semi-mount.

Pearlmans Jewelers Click on Pave, halo, and more to get some great ideas. I have worked with Julian there and he is awesome.

A good Pricescope thread on halo styles.

A good Pricescope thread on less than one carat diamond rings.

You could send the diamond back to JA for one of these settings.
