Our Review

The MONTESSA JEWELLS halo design does what every good halo should: it makes the center Princess look bigger, brighter, and more impressive than it would in a solitaire setting. At the mid-range price point, this is particularly valuable — you get visual impact that punches above the raw carat weight. The 14K Rose Gold setting is well-constructed, with each halo stone individually set and a clean transition from the halo crown to the split shank.

The 14K Rose Gold (14K) metalwork is where the MONTESSA JEWELLS's craftsmanship really shows. The band has consistent thickness throughout, the transitions between setting and shank are smooth and well-finished, and there are no rough spots or casting imperfections. Each tiny halo stone is precisely seated in its setting.

Comfort and practicality are strong suits of the MONTESSA JEWELLS. The ring sits well on the finger — not too tall, not too heavy, and the edges are smoothed to prevent any snagging on fabrics. We wore this ring for several consecutive days and experienced no discomfort or irritation.

Should you buy the MONTESSA JEWELLS? For buyers in the mid-range range, this is one of the strongest options we have tested. The combination of 14K Rose Gold and Princess stone creates a lasting impression that photographs beautifully and wears well daily.

What We Like

  • Halo setting makes the center stone appear 30-50% larger
  • Each halo stone is individually inspected for quality
  • Well-engineered setting keeps all stones secure

Watch Out For

  • Accent stones are modest in carat weight
  • Pave melee stones need periodic inspection for security
  • Halo setting adds complexity to future resizing
