So I am laughing right now because d'ohI have a GIA J OEC in a halo setting.
This wasn't my setting choice rather the OEC I fell in love with came with this setting and temporarily while I think about what final setting I want I am keeping her in this setting. It is I think a setting from the 1950s so not true to the age of the OEC at all and not old cut diamonds in the halo. And while I do not know the color of the halo diamonds I do not notice a color disparity (could be because they are entirely different diamonds and also the size is dramatically different as well) and this setting is pleasing to my eye and will do quite well as a temp setting.
The reason I am not keeping her in this forever is because at heart I am a solitaire girl for my engagement ring. Got engaged with a soli and married with a soli and up to 2018 I wore a solitaire ER. Yes I have gone through a number of ER diamonds and settings lol but this diamond is "the one" for me forever. Just haven't gotten around to finding the HG setting for my HG diamond quite yet.
Sorry for the long winded explanation but it struck my funny bone that I have the exact color diamond in a halo that you were asking about and I answered your post and didn't even think about my ring. Of course the main difference is my diamond is an OEC and we are comparing apples and oranges but if it helps you at all here is a photo.
In the foyer of our apartment. No overhead lights on...just natural daylight coming through the windows.
And outside this winter on the beach.
