[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Halo rings can be very pretty, and if that's what you want, go for it, and enjoy. But I don't think many people understand why jewelers/marketing agencies are pushing this particular look so hard, making it such a trend. A one-carat solitaire is far and away more rare and valuable than a "one-carat total weight ring." So if your center stone is .75 carats, surrounded by .25 of "promotional grade" diamonds, you are being SOLD a one-carat ring that doesn't really translate to one-carat solitaire market value. (Mileage varies, of course, I'm speaking in general terms.) They're trying to sell you the "one-carat ring experience" while not giving you the one-carat value.[/quote] I'm glad I read this before ring shopping![/quote]
