Shared Prong? Spaced Prong?

Hi, everyone!
I've been scouring the Internet high and low for a split-shank setting for my e-ring.

I love the type of band that I've posted below. It looks like a prong setting, but it has that space/gap/line between each diamond, making each stone look distinct. I'd love to know the name of this setting, so that I can Google more settings that I like!

Also, what are your opinions on having a split shank like that with a rectangular radiant stone and a) a rose-gold halo with pink diamonds (very delicate setting) and/or b) having pave diamonds set on the profile/prongs of the ring? Is it too much with a band like that, or will the pave diamonds look classy with the diamonds on the "top" of the band?

Do you think that a halo would suit a rectangular radiant? I love halos, but I don't want the ring to look tacky with a halo, a prong band, and pave diamonds on the profile.

Thoughts?

Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

The rings in this picture have a single prong set band. Memoire also makes this style.

Yes, I tend to think that combining a halo with pink diamonds or diamonds on the prongs with this setting would be overkill. I'd just recommend looking at many designer rings to get some ideas of what looks good together. I think the rings in the picture really are complete like they are. On the other hand, some radiants face up small, so a halo can boost size. I'd just keep a simple pave band if you went with a halo.

Look at Victor Canera, Art of Platinum, Engagement Rings Direct, Steven Kirsch, Simon G, Verragio, etc.
