With the excitement of Wimbledon behind us and the Citi Open quickly approaching, all eyes are on tennis. There's perhaps no jewelry piece more iconically tied to the sport than that of the tennis bracelet. However, the tennis necklace, the bracelet's complement, has gained increased popularity in recent years.

History

The tennis bracelet, or diamond line bracelet, gained its name from the famous tennis player Chris Evert at the 1987 US Open Championship. During the match, the clasp of her diamond bracelet broke, and she immediately stopped the match to look for her "tennis" bracelet, drawing attention to the piece of jewelry. Ever since the diamond line bracelet has been referred to as the tennis bracelet.

The tennis bracelet has evolved throughout the years, and a longer version emerged, known as the tennis necklace. Its added length and larger diamonds make it a true classic, timeless, and extravagant piece of jewelry. 

Styling

With its versatility, you can wear a tennis necklace in different ways, dressing it both up and down for a sophisticated look.
