The diamond halo makes the peridot look a bit larger but most importantly it provides a distinctive color contrast that makes the peridot quite beautiful. Another popular design is to have accent diamonds on the sides of the peridot ring. This type of peridot 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.
