Tennis Bracelets: The Ultimate Jewellery Accessory


CARAT* LONDON tennis bracelets are the ultimate jewellery accessory. Flawlessly sparkling stones are set into a thin strip of sterling silver or gold to create an elegant looking bracelet with endless versatility.


Some history first. The tennis bracelet got its iconic name when tennis player Chris Evert famously lost her diamond bracelet while playing a match at the 1987 U.S. Open. The match had to be paused to allow Evert to recover her extravagant accessory. A new jewellery category was born. Tennis bracelets have been incredibly popular ever since.

Which Metal Colour to Pick?


To help you choose the best bracelet type of metal, you can compare how it will look on your arm. The golden hues found in the yellow gold are sure to draw attention. For most skin tones, white gold is able to blend into the skin more smoothly than its yellow gold counterpart. Sterling silver follows more neutral hues and will complement whatever colour you are wearing.

HOW TO PICK THE PERFECT BRACELET LENGTH


Wondering how to choose the right size bracelet for your wrist? You should be able to fit one finger under the bracelet, but not fall off of your wrist. Use a measuring tape to measure your wrist circumference when shopping on our website. Some of our most popular  bracelets  are available in 16 and 18cm - the most common wrist circumferences.

For an adjustable bracelet choose our Phoebe, Lexi or Quentin styles.

WHICH STONE SHAPE IS RIGHT FOR YOUR BRACELET?

CONSIDERING THE OCCASION

Tennis bracelets look gorgeous on their own, but if you want to give yours an edge, try pairing it with a stylish  watch. They add to the overall look of any tennis bracelet because you get to wear two accessories that each stand alone.


We also make selection of lab created diamond tennis bracelets in our GENTLE DIAMOND collections. They are the perfect accessory brides wear on their wedding day, or as a present for their bridesmaids or mother of the bridesmaids.
