The halo around the oval centre stone isn't just a simple circle. We set each of the small round diamonds at a specific angle to create a seamless cushion of light, which makes the main diamond appear even larger and brighter than it is on its own.
An oval-cut diamond sits at the centre, enclosed by a halo of smaller round brilliant stones. The band itself is lined with 31 pavé-set diamonds that travel halfway down its 2 mm width, leaving the bottom half as a simple, polished band. The setting is a French pavé style, which means the sides of the diamonds are exposed to let light enter from more angles.
We make this ring in your choice of 14K or 18K solid gold. 14K gold is 58.3% pure, which means it’s very durable and a good fit for a ring you'll wear every day. 18K gold is 75% pure, giving it a slightly heavier, richer feel. Both are plated with rhodium—a hard, silvery-white metal from the platinum family. This gives the white gold its bright, crisp colour and adds a layer of scratch resistance that helps protect the finish.

You'd choose this ring if you want the classic shape of an oval but with more light and presence than a simple solitaire. The halo amplifies the centre stone, and the pavé band adds brilliance from every angle, but the band itself remains slim and comfortable at just 2 mm wide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this white gold engagement ring have rhodium plating?
The rhodium plating gives your white gold ring its ultra-bright, white finish. Natural white gold has a slightly warm, yellowish-grey tint, so we plate it with rhodium for a crisp colour and added scratch resistance. This plating naturally wears over time and will need to be reapplied every 1-3 years to maintain its look.
Can I wear this diamond pavé engagement ring while showering or washing my hands?
Yes, you can wear your ring while showering and washing your hands. Water won't harm the gold or diamonds, but be mindful that soaps, lotions, and shampoos can build up behind the stones, especially in the pavé setting. This film dulls the sparkle, so regular cleaning is recommended.
How should my new engagement ring fit on my finger?
Your engagement ring should be snug enough that it won't fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle with a little effort. Your finger size can change with temperature and time of day, so it's best to measure when you're calm and your body temperature is normal for the most accurate fit.
What happens if I order the wrong size for my engagement ring?
We offer a 30-day return or exchange period for our rings. If you've ordered the wrong size, please contact us at returns@vanhess.ca. We will provide a prepaid shipping label and instructions to help you send it back for the correct size or a full refund.
How long does shipping take for an engagement ring to the United States?
Shipping to the US and Canada typically takes 5-15 business days, and we offer free shipping on all orders over $60 CAD. For orders to the UK and Europe, free shipping is available for orders over $110 CAD, with a similar delivery timeframe. You'll receive a tracking number once it ships.
