Oval-Cut Diamond Halo with Eternity Band

Something timeless and elegant such as an oval-cut diamond halo ring with a half-eternity band is a really great choice for an engagement ring. We can easily say that, but this isn’t something that might be readily apparent to all the men out there. Women all have their own unique styles and tastes. And you are being asked to choose something she will wear daily for the rest of her life. That, alone, is a huge deal. So it is easy to see why so many people find choosing an engagement ring to be a daunting and confusing experience.

The great thing is that we have a ton of experience helping couples of all styles and from all walks of life find the perfect ring for them. This experience allows us to know a lot about the dos and don’ts of buying an engagement ring. Here, we try to dispel some of the scariness of the process. We discuss some of the main things you will want to take into consideration when choosing an engagement ring. Then, we will make our case as to why classic styles are the best choice for this circumstance. Finally, we will take a closer look at one specific ring in particular. We look at its individual components and the piece as a whole to discuss why we think that something like this is a really excellent option for almost anyone. 

Hopefully, this information can at least make the process a bit less daunting for the groom-to-be. It is our hope that it might even become an enjoyable experience. 

The Most Important Piece of Jewelry You’ll Ever Buy

One of the things that people find most daunting about selecting an engagement ring is often the price associated with the piece. For many couples, this is the most expensive piece of jewelry they will ever purchase. And most important. An engagement ring is supposed to be a visible symbol of your love and relationship status. It is something that you are going to expect your bride-to-be to wear every day for the rest of her life. That is a lot of pressure on someone. You are being asked to pick something that she will want to wear, well, forever. So it makes sense to put some effort into selecting a piece that will suit that job as perfectly as possible. 

We know that there is a lot of pressure in making a decision such as this. Hence, the purpose of this article. Whether you choose the oval-cut diamond halo with an eternity band that we feature here, or you choose a different piece, we hope this guide makes the process a bit easier. While it can seem daunting, with a few tips and hints, the process can be made quite a bit easier. 

Considerations for Choosing an Engagement Ring

While we love the oval-cut diamond ring we feature here, we know that it might not be the right ring for everyone. So here, let’s take a look at some of the things you will want to think about while looking for the perfect engagement ring. First off, you will want to set a budget. The last thing you want to do is to fall in love with a particular ring, only to find it falls outside your price limit. Setting a budget ahead of time can save a lot of headaches. Next, you will want to think about her style and preferences. Are there materials that she prefers? Do you know of any gemstone cuts that she likes?

And, you will want to take a really close look at her lifestyle and choose the right ring accordingly. Is she really active? Does she use her hands a lot in her work or hobbies? If the answer to either of these questions is yes, you will want to choose a ring that won’t impede her daily activities. Having a ring that is pretty is great, but if she isn’t able to wear it during the course of her daily life, it isn’t serving its purpose. 

The Classics Really Are Best

We know that it can be really tempting to choose something flashy and trendy for your bride-to-be. This is especially true if she is fashion-forward. However, we feel that this is making a huge mistake and we would like to make the case as to why. Trendy jewelry has its place. But think about trends. These are things that come and go, sometimes really quickly. The engagement ring and wedding band are meant to be worn every day for the rest of her life. If the ring falls out of fashion, she will either be stuck with a ring she doesn’t like or you have to fork out for something new. 

This is why we recommend something classic such as the oval-cut diamond halo we feature here. Classics are those styles that, for whatever reason, defy trends and can stand the test of time. These are styles that, no matter what is currently trendy, are going to look great. And, chances are, your bride-to-be is going to have a style that changes over time. Choosing something classic and timeless is also great for an ever-evolving style. And the ring we feature here boasts three classic styles in one piece, which gives you something a bit more unique. 

The Oval-Cut Diamond Solitaire

When we are thinking about classic styles, it is hard to beat a solitaire-style ring. As the name implies, a solitaire is a ring that features a large main stone as the centerpiece of the ring. Sometimes this stone is on its own with a simple metal band, but it can also have accents. The oval-cut diamond ring with a halo we feature here has accents on both the solitaire as well as on the band of the ring. This gives this incredibly classic and timeless style a bit more glitz and glamor.

The oval-cut diamond is a great choice for pretty much any style. It looks great with vintage, modern, or even trendy fashions. The slightly-elongated nature of the stone has a slimming effect and can make your fingers appear longer. And, this is a cut that is meant to maximize the sparkle, or brilliance, the stone gives off. This cut has a lot of facets cut into the surface of the ring. These facets allow for a play of light that gives the diamond its signature sparkle and glint. 

The Halo

As we noted above, this ring features an oval-cut diamond solitaire with accents. One of the key accents is the halo. This is a fun and popular style that looks great with pretty much any cut or shape of the diamond. Most commonly, you will see the halo around a round or oval diamond. However, you can also find halos on square, rectangular, or teardrop cuts as well. There is also what is called a hidden halo. This is a halo that goes around the pointed base of the stone, rather than the surface or face. While rare, it gives the ring a texture and that extra sparkle that so many love.

The traditional halo consists of a row of smaller gemstones that encircle the main stone of the ring. In the case of the oval-cut ring we feature here, the accent stones in the halo are also diamonds, but they can be made from other gemstones as well. We like the extra brilliance that this accent adds to the ring. It accentuates and does not take away from the beauty or clarity of the main stone. The accents simply act as a modest extra adornment for the solitaire stone. 

Eternity Band

The eternity band is one of our favorite classic and timeless styles. It is not only beautiful, but it has a symbolism that we love as well. The style is meant to symbolize the joining of two lives together as one. For a soon-to-be-married couple, this is a really great look. We see a half-eternity band feature in the oval-cut diamond halo we feature here. The eternity band is a simple style that consists of small stones, in this case, diamonds, that are inset into the band of the ring. These stones are held in place by precious metal prongs, in this case, white gold. There are full, half, and two-thirds eternity bands. This simply refers to how far around the band the gemstones go.

While there are a lot of people who love the look of a full eternity band, many people opt for the half. This is because, for many people, the full eternity band isn’t as comfortable. The gemstones between the fingers can cause chafing for some. A half-eternity band has the beautiful look and symbolism of the style, but the stones don’t go between the fingers, making this style a bit more comfortable for many. 

Durable and Timeless

A beautiful engagement ring is great, but it really also needs to be one that can stand the test of time as well. As we have said numerous times, this is a ring that she will wear every day for the rest of her life. It needs to be able to withstand the rigors of her daily life without constant risk of damage. What this means is that you want a ring that is well-made and made from high-quality materials. The oval-cut diamond halo with an eternity band that we feature here is a great example of this. It is made from the finest white gold and high-grade diamonds. You can see the quality in the brightness of the metal and the flawlessness of the stones.

This is also a well-made ring. We have incredibly high standards for quality in construction and design. Our buyers seek out only the most high-quality and well-made pieces for our display cases. It is because of our attention to detail that we can guarantee the quality of each and every piece we offer. It is important to us that if you buy an engagement ring from us, it is going to be able to stand the test of time. 

In Closing

Finding the perfect engagement ring for your bride-to-be is not the easiest thing in the world to do. And it makes sense why so many people have a lot of fear about choosing something like an engagement ring. This is a ring you are asking someone to wear for the rest of their lives, day in and day out. That is a pretty big decision to make. It is for this reason that we completely understand the fear and anxiety that come along with choosing an engagement ring. Thankfully, we have a ton of experience helping people find the perfect engagement ring.

We distill our years of experience into this brief guide. Here, we discuss some of the things you will want to consider when choosing a ring. You will want to know her preferences and taste so that you don’t choose a material she doesn’t like. Then, we make a strong case as to why a classic style makes the most sense in this context.

What that gives you is something that is a little bit different, but that still has all those benefits that the classics provide us. This ring is made from the highest-quality materials and meets incredibly high standards for construction and design. What this means is that you are getting a ring that can stand the test of time.
