18K White Gold Halo Pendant Setting

This custom made halo pendant setting is a study in refined brilliance and understated rarity, designed for the collector who demands something singular and personal. The halo style places a chosen center gemstone at the heart of a luminous ring of smaller round diamonds, a configuration that amplifies sparkle and creates a striking, eye catching effect. Available in 14K Rose Gold, 14K White Gold, 18K White Gold, 14K Yellow Gold, 18K Yellow Gold, and Platinum 950, each piece is crafted to complement the unique hue and personality of your center stone. Side stones are set as round diamonds, selected for precision cut and scintillation, and placed to maximize light return around the center gem. Because every pendant is custom made, you are not purchasing a mass produced item, you are commissioning a limited creation, an heirloom quality pendant reserved for a select few who appreciate the marriage of classic halo geometry and meticulous hand finishing.

The halo setting is exceptionally versatile, and it transforms sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and other fine gemstones into luminous focal points with enhanced perceived size and depth. Whether you select a rich cornflower sapphire, a velvety pigeon blood ruby, an intensely saturated emerald, or a unique colored gemstone, the surrounding ring of diamonds throws light back into the center stone, intensifying color and adding lively scintillation. Our craftsmen work with stones in a broad range of sizes, typically accommodating center gems from modest everyday sizes to impressive statement weights. As a guide, centers from approximately 0.30 carat through 4.00 carats sit beautifully in a single halo pendant, with the option to scale upward for those seeking more dramatic presence. The melee diamonds that form the halo commonly range from 0.01 carat to 0.05 carat each, carefully matched for color and clarity to ensure an even, continuous field of sparkle. Prong settings are tailored to the stone shape and metal choice, ensuring security and optimal light performance, and each piece can be finished with refined details upon request, creating a bespoke outcome that feels personal, exclusive, and intentionally rare.

This halo pendant setting can be configured to accommodate a wide variety of gemstone shapes and proportions, enabling you to choose the silhouette that best reflects your taste. Round brilliant stones work exceptionally well, with ideal center sizes typically from four millimeters to ten millimeters, translating roughly to 0.25 carat through 4.00 carats. Oval shapes bring elongation and elegance, and centers between six by four millimeters and twelve by eight millimeters are well suited, covering a range from approximately 0.50 carat to 5.00 carats. Cushion cuts pair vintage charm with modern sparkle, and dimensions between five by five millimeters and nine by seven millimeters usually balance beautifully in the halo. Emerald cut gemstones display step cut clarity and depth, and sizes from six by four millimeters to ten by eight millimeters provide a refined look. Pear shapes create a graceful teardrop silhouette, with versatile sizing from seven by five millimeters up to twelve by eight millimeters for more dramatic pieces. Marquise cuts offer unique length, and centers from eight by four millimeters to twelve by six millimeters are commonly used. Square princess stones are contemporary and brilliant, with four and a half millimeters to eight millimeters typical. Heart shapes and asscher cuts are also welcome, with recommended ranges that produce optimal symmetry and halo proportion. For any nonstandard proportions or unusual gem cuts, our design team will assess the stone and propose tailored halo dimensions to protect the gem and optimize visual balance.

Because these pendants are custom made, availability is inherently limited, and each commission is an invitation into an intimate design experience. When you choose this halo pendant setting you are selecting more than a piece of jewelry, you are claiming membership in an exclusive circle of owners who possess objects of deliberate beauty, crafted with exacting standards and personal attention. To explore metal choices, center stone options, and precise sizing, we invite you to schedule a private consultation, where our specialists will guide you through gemstone selection, halo proportions, and finishing details, ensuring your pendant is truly one of a kind.
