THE TENNIS BRACELET

In the category of iconic fine jewelry styles, the tennis bracelet has emerged over the past four decades as a widely recognized classic. Early in her career, Chris Evert lost her diamond bracelet while playing at the US Open, and what in earlier times was often referred to as a diamond line or eternity bracelet, soon became more popularly referred to as the tennis bracelet. %expanded-mobile% %expanded-desktop%And maybe more precisely as the diamond tennis bracelet. These women’s tennis bracelets were most commonly offered in gold and given the flexible nature of the individual components of each bracelet, gold was the right choice of metal for strength and durability. Over time the style of the tennis bracelet has evolved, ranging from a bracelet of larger diamonds to more petite and varied stone shapes and sizes. Many might recognize the white gold tennis bracelet as a true classic. Maybe it's the notion of tennis whites, or more simply the ease with which a white gold tennis bracelet can complement one's engagement ring or other bridal jewelry that is white gold or platinum. Worn alone on the wrist, a woman's diamond tennis bracelet is a simple but elegant statement, but at the same time it can be one of the simplest complements to ones watch or other bracelets when worn together or in stacked layers. We created the Tennis Bracelet-CE collection in collaboration with Chris Evert. The collection is offered in a variety of styles and price points from 18k white and yellow gold tennis bracelets to those available in sterling silver and steel. The silver tennis bracelets are the most accessible styles in the collection and feature white sapphires and rock crystal.
