Introduction: Why Tennis Bracelets Remain a Timeless Favorite
We jewelry addicts can state that the tennis bracelet is one of the most timeless and versatile items you can wear. Whether you're dressing up to go to a gala or simply dressing down, a tennis bracelet adds a spacious kind of sophistication to any ensemble. At Stella Henri, we’ve curated collections that reflect this timeless charm—think Gold Tennis Bracelets, 14K Gold Bangle Bracelets, and even trend-forward paperclip chain bracelets. There’s a reason these delicate yet powerful pieces have stood the test of time.
The Fascinating History of the Tennis Bracelet
The story of the tennis bracelet really began in 1987, when tennis champion Chris Evert lost her diamond bracelet during a match and paused the game to find it. Since then, the name has stuck, and the style has become a staple in jewelry boxes around the world. At Stella Henri, we’ve seen how this iconic design has evolved—from Hollywood red carpets to minimalist fashion moments.
Today's tennis bracelets range from traditional diamond rows to newer looks in colored gemstones and two-tone metals—perfect to stack with our yellow, white, and rose gold 14k gold bracelet assortment.
What Is a Tennis Bracelet?
A tennis bracelet is a sophisticated, supple bangle with a symmetric row of gemstones—usually diamonds—set in gold or platinum. It's a look that's tied to balance, beauty, and understated glamour.
At Stella Henri, we focus on quality features like:
-
14k yellow, white, and rose gold
-
Lab-grown and natural diamonds

If you love sophisticated bracelets and stylish chains, a tennis bracelet is the ideal addition to your collection.

Tennis Bracelet Settings Explained
Understanding settings helps you pick the right bracelet for both your lifestyle and personal style. Some of the best ones that I generally recommend are:

How to Choose the Right Tennis Bracelet
When choosing your tennis bracelet, you want one that functions within your lifestyle and your own individual style. I guide clients through the 4Cs of diamonds—cut, color, clarity, and carat—to ensure you choose a piece you'll love for years to come.
Also, consider:
-
Fit: It must be snug but not restrictive.
-
Metal color: Yellow, white, or rose gold depending on wardrobe and complexion.
We often match clients' favorite bracelet pieces like an interlocking link necklace or paperclip chain bracelet with the client for a cohesive look.
Cost of a Tennis Bracelet: What to Expect
Tennis bracelet prices vary significantly depending on materials, carat weight, and craftsmanship. At Stella Henri, we offer pieces in every price point without compromising on beauty or quality.
Factors to consider:
-
Lab-grown diamonds are a stunning, affordable alternative to natural gems.
-
14k gold offers timeless value at less cost than 18k or platinum.
-
More rows or designer pieces may run higher, but the visual difference is well worth it!

How to Style a Tennis Bracelet
This is where the fun begins! Styling your tennis bracelet is all about highlighting your individual style.
Here are my favorite ways to wear them:

Solo statement: Make your Gold Tennis Bracelet make a statement.

Stacked: Layer with a Paperclip Chain Bracelet, Bezel Set Station Bracelet, or even a chunky Bangle Bracelet.
-
Coordinated: Coordinate with a 14k gold bar necklace or dainty chain for a look that makes sense.
There is no wrong way to wear a tennis bracelet—just personalize it.
Caring for Your Tennis Bracelet
A treasured bracelet requires proper care. I always tell clients:
-
Gently wash it with warm water and a soft brush.

Avoid chemicals—take it off before swimming or cleaning.
-
Store it safely in a lined box or soft pouch to prevent scratching.
At Stella Henri, we also offer periodic inspections so your bracelet looks its best and is safe.
