Tennis Necklaces

A tennis necklace takes the same continuous-line idea as a tennis bracelet and carries it around the neckline: a flexible row of diamonds designed to follow the curve of the neck rather than sit stiff.
Carat weight is what really separates the pieces in this collection. They range from 5 carats to 37.50 carats total weight — far beyond our tennis bracelets, which top out at 9 carats. At the lower end, the necklace reads as a fine line of light. At the top end, it becomes the piece people notice first.
Every necklace here is made in 14K gold, with twenty-one in white gold and eleven in yellow gold, and every one is set with lab grown diamonds. That is a big reason these higher total carat weights are available at these prices — matching twenty or thirty carats of natural diamonds into a single line would put the cost in a very different range.
Nearly all are F color with VS clarity, and the collection uses round brilliant diamonds throughout.
Most of the collection is 17 inches, a classic tennis-necklace length that sits close to the base of the neck on many people. There are also three 18-inch options and one 22.6-inch piece for a longer drop.
If you want to understand the difference between the two diamond origins, our guide to lab grown vs. natural diamonds explains how they compare in appearance and price.
