A single teardrop, ringed in light. This teardrop halo engagement ring in sterling silver sets a pear-shaped center inside a sparkling halo of small accent stones, all on a dainty 1.7 mm band. The halo catches the light from every angle and makes the center look larger and brighter — a romantic, vintage-leaning design that delivers real red-carpet shimmer at a wonderfully attainable price.

A halo that makes the whole ring glow
The teardrop, or pear, cut is one of the most flattering shapes there is — its gentle point lengthens the finger while the rounded end holds a pool of soft light. Circle it with a halo of pave-style accents and the effect multiplies: a border of tiny sparkles that frames the center, adds surprising presence and throws light from every direction. If that surround-sound sparkle is your love language, explore our full range of halo engagement rings and the diamond-look designs in our halo moissanite engagement rings.
The teardrop center stone
At the heart of the halo sits a pear-cut simulated diamond — a bright, colorless cubic zirconia measuring about 8 x 6 mm, roughly 1.4 carats in diamond terms. Cubic zirconia is prized for its clear, ice-white flash, giving you that classic engagement-ring look without the fine-diamond outlay. Curious how the stone compares to other diamond alternatives? Our guide to moissanite versus cubic zirconia lays it all out plainly.
Dainty by design
The slim 1.7 mm band keeps the ring light and delicate, so the halo does all the talking. It is the kind of low-profile, comfortable ring you can wear from morning coffee to evening out without a second thought, and it stacks beautifully with a plain band. If you love an understated setting with a big-look center, you will find kindred designs across our nature-inspired engagement rings.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
The ring is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with a layer of rhodium — the same precious metal used on fine white-gold jewelry. That rhodium finish gives the band a bright, mirror-white luster and adds a protective shield that helps resist tarnish and everyday scratches, so the silver keeps its freshly polished look. It is the detail that lets a sterling silver ring wear like something far more expensive.
The meaning of the teardrop
The pear shape has long been read as a symbol of tears of joy — and, ringed by a halo, as love protected and made whole. It is a shape with a little history and a lot of romance. If you are weighing which diamond-look stone suits you, our comparison of moissanite versus lab-grown diamond is a helpful next step, and for the deeper backstory of gemstone symbolism, see our journal on the history of gemstones.

Sizing & care
Choose your size at checkout. If you are between sizes or unsure, we are happy to help — and if the fit is not quite right, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. To keep the teardrop, halo and rhodium finish at their brightest, remove the ring before showering, swimming or applying lotions, and store it in the velvet box when not worn. A soft brush and a soft, dry cloth lift dust from behind the halo and restore the sparkle. With gentle care, this is a ring made to be worn every day.
Frequently asked questions
Is the center stone a real diamond?
No — it is a bright cubic zirconia, a budget-friendly diamond alternative chosen for its clear, ice-white sparkle. Set inside a halo, it gives you a big-look, high-shine ring at an attainable price.
What is a halo setting?
A halo is a ring of small accent stones encircling the center stone. It frames the center, makes it look larger and adds extra sparkle from every angle.
How big is the center stone?
The pear-cut center measures about 8 x 6 mm, roughly 1.4 carats in diamond terms — and the surrounding halo makes it look even more generous on the hand.
Which way does the teardrop point?
Traditionally the pointed end faces up toward the fingertip, which elongates and flatters the finger. You can wear it whichever way feels right to you.
What metal is the ring made from?
Solid 925 sterling silver, finished with rhodium for a bright white luster and extra protection against tarnish and scratches.
What does the rhodium finish do?
Rhodium is the same precious metal used to finish fine white gold. It gives the silver a mirror-bright, white-gold-like shine and adds a protective layer that helps the ring stay looking freshly polished.
Will sterling silver turn my finger green?
Genuine 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish will not turn your skin green under normal wear. Green marks come from low-quality alloys, never from real sterling silver cared for properly.
Is it durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. The cubic zirconia sits around 8 on the Mohs scale and the rhodium-finished silver is made for everyday life. Remove it for heavy chores or sport, and clean gently behind the halo now and then.
Can matching bands be added?
Yes. The dainty profile stacks beautifully with a plain or contoured wedding band, which are available separately, so you can build a complete bridal look over time.
Can the ring be engraved?
Yes. You can add a personal engraving of up to 16 characters at checkout — a date, initials or a short message. Engraved pieces are final sale, so please double-check the spelling.
What size should I order?
Select your ring size at checkout. If you are unsure or between sizes, contact us for guidance. Resizing is available and starts from a modest fee.
Does it arrive gift-ready?
Every order ships in a free luxury velvet gift box and is backed by our lifetime warranty — ready for a proposal or to give as a keepsake.
