A popular emerald ring design is to have diamonds surrounding the emerald in a halo frame. The diamond halo makes the emerald look a bit larger but most importantly it provides a distinctive color contrast that makes the emerald quite beautiful. Another popular design is to have accent diamonds on the sides of the emerald ring. This type of emerald ring design lends an elegance without being too flashy. Without a doubt, combining both a diamond halo and accent diamond in the ring is the most popular choice.
