Since 2021, the popularity of tennis necklaces and bracelets has exploded across the globe. Their clean look, high-quality materials, and ability to match nearly any outfit seamlessly make this sudden burst of love and appreciation for them entirely understandable.

Before purchasing any jewelry, especially in the case of higher-end jewelry pieces, you need to closely consider the pieces you are deliberating. You want to ensure that the jewelry aligns with your style, your requirements, and that it will last you for years to come.

This concept certainly applies to purchasing diamond tennis necklaces and bracelets, which are “all the rage” in more recent years. Instead of hastily purchasing one (or more!) of these stunning options, consult our guide here so you are far less likely to wind up with one you are unsatisfied with.

What Are Tennis Necklaces and Bracelets?

But what exactly are diamond tennis necklaces and bracelets? What makes them so unique in comparison to other necklaces and bracelets?

A diamond tennis necklace has a single strand of diamonds that exudes poise and elegance while circling the entire neckline. Tennis necklaces have strewn diamonds and are made of white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, or platinum.

Tennis bracelets, on the other hand, are quite similar to their necklace counterparts, except they are worn on the wrist. Their chains are comprised of varying precious metals as well and have a symmetrical layout of diamonds.

Both of these jewelry pieces are uniform in their design, made of diamonds and metals, and can be worn comfortably on the body, as neither are tight in fit. They are both unequivocally enamoring and eloquent, offering their wearers a non-ostentatious accessory to pair with nearly any outfit they choose.

What to Consider When Buying
When you are purchasing a piece of high-quality jewelry for either yourself or someone you care about, there are several components that you need to consider prior to handing over that cash (or swiping that credit card)-- and that certainly applies to tennis bracelets and necklaces.

The Cut
Diamond cuts, which are essentially their shapes, come in several options. Diamonds can indeed be cut into numerous shapes, but there are 10 more popular shapes to date: round, princess, cushion, emerald, radiant, marquise, pear, oval, Asscher, pear, and heart.

The round cut is one of the most currently popular options and has been for years. It is one of the best choices for showcasing the gem’s shiny nature, as round cuts have more facets and angles to perfectly reflect light.

Round cuts are highly sought after for engagement rings, yes, but they are so for other diamond pieces, like tennis necklaces and bracelets, as well for their elegance and brilliance.

The second most popular cut overall is the princess cut, which appears in a square-like shape. Even though it has a square cut, it still offers enamoring light reflection, shine, and an almost angelic style.

We highly recommend you investigate these ten popular options to find which will best cater to your aesthetic requirements (or the person’s preferences for which you are purchasing the diamond tennis necklace or bracelet).

The Length and Width
Tennis necklaces tend to have a smaller range in length and width, but it’s important to consider these options prior to purchasing regardless. As for length, they are typically 17 to 18 inches. As for width, this is especially stringent to the sizes of the diamonds. The diamonds can range in width, from 3mm to 6mm, making the necklace overall the same width.

The width is especially important because this can matter in the look you’re wanting to boast. Stones that are 3 to 4mm are great for everyday wear, while those that are larger in width (5 to 6mm) tend to be more ideal for those more formal evenings.

As for bracelets, the size is especially important, as you want them to fit your wrist (right where it meets your hand) comfortably. If you can fit your forefinger between your wrist and your bracelet, then that means it is a sublime fit. If not, that means it may be too tight.

The Metal
The diamonds in both tennis necklaces and bracelets are nestled comfortably in metal, which makes for the chain. This chain can be composed of different metal types, such as white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, and platinum. Be sure to choose the right one to match your desired look, wear, and even cleaning requirements.

The Setting
Settings also can be different in these stunning diamond jewelry pieces but tend to gravitate to three specific styles: prong, bezel, or channel. The setting provides two key purposes: adding extra style to the overall accessory and keeping the diamonds securely in place.

Different Styles of Tennis Bracelets and Necklaces
These pieces of jewelry do indeed vary in style to efficiently match anyone’s specifications. Diamonds can come in rows of one, two, or three diamonds. Many of them tend to utilize more round-cut diamonds than others, as it is the most popular cut of diamonds (as mentioned above), but again: the cuts and therefore overall styles vary.

You can undoubtedly find diamond tennis bracelets and necklaces with nearly any cut style paired with options in row number and diamond count.

Where Should You Buy Diamond Tennis Necklaces and Bracelets?
