Square halo diamond rings with pavé settings worth it?


Last weekend, I was browsing for an engagement ring and a friend showed me a design with a square halo around a round diamond, and it really caught my eye because it looked more unique than the usual ones you see. I’m curious, though, about how practical these square halo diamond rings are when they have pavé settings. Are they more delicate or do they hold up well over time with daily wear? Also, how does the square halo affect the overall look compared to a traditional round halo? Does it really make the center diamond look larger, or is that just a marketing thing? I’m thinking about the cost as well since pavé settings involve a lot of smaller diamonds. Has anyone had experience with cleaning or resizing these rings? I want something special but also something that lasts.
