Whether you're buying your first tennis bracelet or adding to your jewellery collection, understanding bracelet size, diamond quality, metal options and design details will help you make the right choice.

What Is a Tennis Bracelet?
A tennis bracelet is a flexible bracelet featuring a continuous row of diamonds connected by precious metal links. The design is elegant, comfortable and designed to showcase the beauty of each diamond.
The name became famous after professional tennis player Chris Evert lost her diamond bracelet during a match and asked officials to pause the game while she searched for it.
