The story behind the tennis bracelet ✨
A timeless piece that became iconic thanks to one unforgettable moment in tennis history.
In 1978, during the U.S. Open, Chris Evert lost her diamond bracelet mid-match - and asked officials to stop the game so she could find it.
That moment changed jewellery history forever.
What started as a simple diamond line bracelet suddenly became a global sensation.
The story went viral (by ’70s standards), and the piece gained a new identity.
Originally called a “diamond line bracelet,”
it was later named the “tennis bracelet” after Chris Evert casually mentioned it in an interview.
And the name stayed - forever.
Today, the tennis bracelet is more than jewellery - it’s a symbol of elegance, simplicity, and everyday luxury.
From bracelets to necklaces and earrings, it remains a timeless classic.
