Diamond Tennis Necklace

The tennis necklace features a row of diamonds neatly arranged in a single line. How did the tennis necklace earn its name?

The term “tennis” was first used in jewelry in the 1970s to refer to a bracelet that was unintentionally popularized by a tennis player named Christ Evert. In the middle of a match, she noticed she had lost her bracelet, which consisted of a single row of diamond stones. She requested to pause the game so she could look for it. 

After the game, she was interviewed about it, and she casually referred to her bracelet as a “tennis bracelet,” which makes sense because she used to wear that bracelet every time she played tennis.

The bracelet wasn’t found, but due to its popularity, people started using the name tennis bracelet for single-row diamond bracelets. Today, the term is also used in single-row diamond necklaces.

A Choker necklace is a type of necklace worn closely fitted around the neck. This style was a popular fashion accessory in the victorian era and made a comeback in the 90s until it became a fashion staple to this day.

The 90s fashion choker was mainly worn with casual attires, but it has now earned a luxurious transformation and found its way to the fine jewelry market. As proof, check out our Bezel Heart Diamond Choker, that’s ready to make an impression at any event.

Bar Diamond Necklace

A classic bar necklace typically has a horizontal metal bar attached to a chain. Modern styles come in different types, including curved, engraved, and gem-aligned bars. Bar necklaces are versatile pieces that can be worn with any outfit - casual or formal and can go with other necklace styles.

A lariat necklace consists of a long chain that usually ends with a focal drop, which could be a tassel, charms, pearls, or other decorative elements, in the center. It is also known as a Y necklace because its shape resembles the letter Y.  

Our 7-Stone Lariat is a must-have fashion piece that spells classy like no other.

Floating Diamond Necklace

A floating diamond necklace consists of a thin chain that gives its diamond stones the impression of floating. Its delicate, low-profile chain draws attention to the diamonds and accentuates their brilliance and beauty.
