Why a halo?
A halo frames the centre diamond with a ring of small diamonds. The extra sparkle makes the centre stone look larger, so it is a good way to get a big look for less. Paired with a diamond-set band, it gives the most sparkle of all.
The Asscher cut diamond
The Asscher is the square cousin of the emerald cut. Its deep step facets and cut corners draw the eye into the centre of the stone, giving a hypnotic, windmill-like pattern. First cut in 1902, it is the classic Art Deco diamond.
Choosing your Asscher diamond
Like the emerald cut, the Asscher shows its clarity, so choose VS2 or better. Look for a ratio between 1.00 and 1.05 for a true square. A G or H colour keeps the step facets crisp and bright.
Platinum or gold?
Platinum is naturally white, hard-wearing and the most secure choice for the claws that hold your diamond. 18ct white, yellow and rose gold cost a little less, and 9ct gold less again. Shop by metal: platinum, 18ct white gold, 18ct yellow gold or 18ct rose gold.
Choose your own diamond
Every ring is set with a centre diamond you choose yourself, natural or lab-grown, from our live stock. Each stone has its grading report, and the ring page shows the finished price before you buy.
