Customise this pieceA halo ring in 18K White Gold, Empress Halo is, carrying 104 stones and built around a centre stone framed to look a size larger. It measures 11.6 × 11.6 mm face, and weighs 6.4 g gross. It sits in the signature part of the book, and is made to your specification — price and booking on request, once we understand what you want changed.
It came out of a request we could not fill from the book. Emerald at this size wants a halo treatment — the internal garden is the identifying feature, not a fault. In this form, the halo is structural as well as flattering. An emerald-cut emerald caged inside two concentric halos, the shoulders micro-set to the shank. A cathedral built at ring scale.

Cast in 18K White Gold by lost wax, then filed and pre-polished before a stone goes near it. The setting on ANG-20 is claw centre, micro-pavé halo at 11.6 × 11.6 mm face. All 104 stones are seated individually against the reference tray rather than to a jig. The last polish is deliberately slow, because speed rounds an edge that took an hour to cut. Photographed from 4 positions because the back of this one is worth seeing.
Empress Halo is shown in 18K White Gold — 18K, 75% fine gold, rhodium-plated over a white alloy, renewed free for life. The same mount can be made in yellow gold, rose gold or 950 platinum, quoted on the metal weight of 6.4 g rather than a flat uplift. Platinum runs roughly a third above 18K on this design because it is denser and slower to work. All gold and platinum is BIS hallmarked with the ANAGARI maker's mark.
18K White Gold — 75% fine gold alloyed with palladium, then rhodium plated for whiteness. Re-plating is complimentary for life.
The centre stone is 1.15 ct. Total carat weight is 2.72 ct, made up of emerald and diamond. Emerald is Mohs 7.5–8 and oiled, which is universal — the internal garden is the identifying feature, not a fault. Colour is matched across the run under standard light, and any stone over 0.30 ct in a diamond piece ships with an independent certificate. Colour stones carry an ANAGARI identification report; IGI or GIA certification is available at cost.
Emerald — Beryl coloured by chromium and vanadium. Almost every emerald has inclusions — the trade calls them jardin, and they are a certificate of nature.
Diamond — Natural, conflict-free and traceable to the cutting house. Graded by IGI or GIA above 0.30 ct.
Every piece is weighed and dimensioned against the approved article before it leaves the floor — 6.4 g on ANG-20. Six inspection gates sit between wax and packing: wax, casting, pre-polish, setting, finish and final. Setting is checked at ten-power on all 104 stones, and nothing advances on a supervisor's word alone. Made in Jaipur under one roof, which is why a query is answered the same afternoon rather than the next month.
Empress Halo was made with birthdays, birthstones and the pleasure of colour, May birthdays, twentieth anniversaries and green in winter and engagements, bridal portraits and the ceremony itself in mind. Worn daily it will show its finish honestly, which is the intention. Sizing runs IN 5 to IN 18; resizing up to two sizes is complimentary for life.
Empress Halo is one of the references we will rebuild to order. Straightforward changes — a different centre stone, a change of metal to yellow gold, carat weight up or down and a matte, satin or hammered finish in place of the polish — are specified in the customisation studio and add nothing to the lead time; booking and pricing follow once the specification is settled. Structural changes, such as taking this halo to a different architecture entirely, need a conversation and a new CAD; that runs six to eight weeks from approval. Private-label and OEM versions of this mount are quoted from one piece upward.
Empress Halo sets emerald and diamond together, so: do not put this piece in an ultrasonic cleaner — Emerald will not survive it. Warm water, a drop of pH-neutral soap and a soft brush is the correct method. Most of the cleaning that matters happens on the reverse of the gallery. Rhodium renewal is complimentary for life and typically wanted every eighteen months on a ring. Remove before contact sport, gardening, and whenever you apply fragrance, sunscreen or hand cream.
