These designs are among the most recent innovations and alterations to the engagement ring. More often the hidden halo is on a simple classic solitaire. The best way to think of this design concept is a solitaire that has an extra feature more often only seen by the owner. The hidden halo is usually on a part of the ring holding the main center gemstone and as such not easily seen by an observer.

Today, the most popular hidden halo designs use very small diamonds along the bar (gallery rail) that holds the prongs together. It truly is an extra for the owner that finds the classic solitaire too plain.
