Tennis Bracelets- a Classic for all time

Tennis Bracelets- a Classic for all time

Nearly 45 years ago Chris Everts diamond bracelet slipped off in the middle of her US Open match- and the rest as they say is history. The match was haulted so that she could find the delicate bracelet, and the lexicon of the line bracelet was changed forever. The sporty name has never quite seemed right for the classic peice. But it has endured, much like the style itself.  

The gemstone bracelet dates back to the cavemen- on nearly every continent humans have been depicted with adornments on their wrists, often with stones for protection, healing and wisdom. Today many people still choose specific stones to keep close to their bodies for these reasons. 

The ever popular diamond bracelet rose to fame in the early 1920's- called the line bracelet it was an elegant and simple adornment for ladies wrists, especially nice when sleeves were long and a wrist was the small peek-a-boo of a womans skin. They have remained a mainstay in popular jewels ever since.  Now they are as individual as your tastes, styles and budget. They come with different shapes, gemstones, metal colors and in an array of styles. Shop our favorites here!
